  • Can I swap tires over?

    I'm going to go get some waffle wheels in a few hours. Now, keep in mind these are only until I get what I really want, the anniversary cobras. But, that's another story. I've got 225/50/16's on my stock SVO wheels. Those tires will just transfer over to the waffles, right?

      Yeah, I feel kind of stupid asking, but I didn't want to go get the wheels, and have a crappy fit or something on them. I much prefer getting double checked on the forums.

          225/50/16's will fit fine on those rims. I have a set mounted on my 85.5 and they don't rub at all. FYI, the rims do stick out slightly more then the stock rims and if you mount wider tires they will rub on bumps.

            Yikes, never mind so far. I'm going to have to wait to get my taxes back for those rims. I took a set of my old mags up to the wheel place, and they were only going to give me $50 for them.. Not to mention the tires don't even have 1000 miles on them..
