so after doing some research decide 8" wide wheels are not quite wide enough for those tires. Dont want to risk failure. So ill be looking for a set of wheels before i can get to the track. Weld RT-S would be my first choice, but my blower took pretty much all my money so those are out. Im kinda liking these, thoughts?

18 x 9.5
43mm offset
$50 each (new)

All you'll need is hub-centric rings...and that's just a recommendation, not mandatory.
