FYI, the widest those wheels come in are only 10", that's why you don't see them on here too much.

I am pretty sure 100% that $1600 for wheels and tires because Ruff wheels are just about a bit more expensive than stock repro a bit.

ya it was 1600 for wheels and tires. Id rather have 3 grand extra in my pocket then 4500 dollar wheels without tires. But thats just me. Thanks for the reply's. Ruff racing only makes a 19 by 9.5 wheel for the back only way u can get a 10 is with a 20 inch wheel. which kinda sucks but i just cruise my car so im not really worried about big tires. Thanks again
