How did you stuff 40/45s under there with stock back spacing is it the 18tens that let you do that.

That is one great looking 76, those wheels are very nice, can't believe you get a better ride that stock, that makes we want to take a look for a set, Again very nice ride, also HOT color |thumb|

The wheel tire combination is not any wider than factory stock, so there is no hitting or rubbing or anything.

The ride is much better because the unsprung weight of the wheel/tire combination is about 10 pounds lighter than stock.

Loosing 10 pounds in unsprung weight, to the suspension it is like taking off 200 pounds off the car.

One reason racers use light wheels....
