New Wheel tool
I just receive my new Summit Catalog with the HenryJ on the front cover and was looking for rims that i could buy to fit under stock glass...
i came upon a tool made by Percy's for $89.95 it says, "that bolts up in place of your rim to simulate wheel diameters,wheel widths, backspacing and tire profiles before you order wheels and tires."
It sounds like a good investment..

Percy's takes the guesswork out of proper wheel fitment!
These revolutionary new tools allow you to get a perfect fit the first time and every time when selecting new wheels and tires. Percy's WheelRites eliminate returns and delays due to an improperly specified wheel. These tools bolt onto your vehicle's hub to precisely simulate bolt pattern, wheel diameter, wheel width, backspacing, and tire profile. The WheelRites allow you to simulate a number of different sized wheels and tires without the expense or hassle of having multiple sizes of wheels and tires on hand.

My son bought one and, yes, it works. But it's the cheesiest plastic thing you ever saw. Looks nothing like the picture - it's made of thin plastic, not solid material like the picture. And the nice looking tire simulator? It's a straight piece of ordinary wire that you bend as well as you can. If it was on the shelf at Toys-R-Us it would be about $6.99.
You will be underwhelmed with the construction, but, yes - it does work.
