    Crap can't find it, looked good too.As long as the back spacing is right and the tire size fits i think they would look great.

    I posted pics of both of this Comets after they were wrecked. His screen name is Cometized. If you don't find it using that I'll search it out in the morning. Heading to bed now. Oh, I loved that green and black one. Got lots of pics of it.

    Depending on tire size i have run a 15x8 with 3.5 backspacing and a 15x8 with a 4.25 bacspace.In my opinion a 4'' backspace wheel looks about perfect.I run 255/60/15's some guys can fit 275's with no prob but i found them a little tight on my car.
