You can have them for $300, look for dodge magnum wheels, they are stock 17"s with 5x4.5" bolt pattern. Also dodge nitros came stock with 17s 5x4.5" bolt pattern. Or you can always buy some steelies.

I think that'll work well. Make sure you get a 12 pack of beer before you do it. Shit is a bit tedious lol.

I hope you're going to groove in between the tread blocks first.

I would suggest grooving the red out first. and then see how you're looking and figure out what you want to do with the tread blocks. :beer:

Well shit, if the gears are okay, I'd take that as not a bad deal considering your front end locked up...

Damn Stables thats a bummer, the 8.8 is something I would have thought you would never have trouble with especially on 35s.
