    I plan on mounting the hardware first, then welding them on when I get around to doing the 14b in the barn. As for rims, thought of going H1's?

    H1 rims are 16.5" diameter and are a double beadlock wheel, so you don't have to worry about ever losing a bead. You can find them all over, mostly people get them military surplus and then resell them.

    the biggest problem with the h1's is the backspacing.

    you need to lay off all that meth you picked up in Clayton, then maybe your hands wouldn't shake so much.

    I am not tryin to say I could do any better at this point and time, but with some torch time I can get it pretty close to a machined edge. (Atleast I hope I can again.)

    paul just go get a pair of some 15 in 8 lug wheels from sunnit or discount, that match your wheels. Will his 15's hit anything with the disk swap?
    He who dies with the most **** wins, after seeing your collection you are in the lead no doubt!
