I'm not rolling anything. This car is too nice for all that action! If it's too close we're going to swap the wheels for something else until I can find a 5.5 South African. Maybe just for the photo shoot???

It's definitely going to be close, but hopefully it'll work. 185/65 looks promising :help: .

OK, so here's the plan if for some reason we can't make the South Africans work (I haven't given up) :thumbs: They're actually pretty cool wheels in that they are all 5.5" but the front wheels have been re-hooped to look like a 4.5" (More Rubber on the Road). Obviously they need the same paint treatment as the SA's. I've got 3 in hand and have the tracking number for the 3rd wheel...

hmm... re hooped to look like a 4.5. thats a new one with the off set that they already have then adding more to bring the center to the outside i would think you are going to have a problem with them being to close on the inside and then rubbing the inside on turns. thats my issue with Courtney's sprint stars and they are 5.

I think the SA wheels will fit. :thumbs: I don't know anything about the ones in the pictures above. T3 has alot of room though, mine is narrowed 4" and doesn't rub.

i was refering to the regular sprint stars. :beer: but seeing that yours is running a 4" narrowed beam and stock rims he should have no problems although i am hoping the SA will fit they are the bomb.
