bought these tyres/wheels used for a unbeatable price this weekend.
I'm very happy with teh way they fill out the wheel gap/wheel wells and I am amazed at the cornering ability of the BFGoodrich g-force KD's along with my full suspension.
heres pics of my baby with the new shoes

as you can see the fit is perfect

1985 GS the wheels are 15/7 with a 4/110 bolt pattern, tires are 205/50R/15's

These are the coolest new school wheels I have seen on a FB imo, I got a lot of love for the mesh and panasports tho but they are out of my price range for nice ones

205/50-15. Also have a very low car, tokico springs that are at least 6-7 years old.
The front fenders have been lightly rolled, but I cannot see any evidence that tires have ever contacted the fenders.
