Picture does not show well. Colorado Custom with 7.9" backspace. Kinda snug near one shock with .2" gap, other side has .4" gap. No rub so far and I've taken exit ramps/turns very hard. One word of caution with Colorado Custom and Budnik's Fat/Soft Lip wheels - they can collect water between the drop center which is at the rear of these type wheels, and the center section. Under right conditions can cause imbalance.

BEEFY!!! :D

Those look like Dunlop SP9000s. I have them in 275/40-18 on my car but sold them. :) Excellent tire!!!

They don't look too bad Thomas. Is that a new set of aftermarket wheels, or the ones you bought originally?

Yes, 9000's and they seem real good. New wheels and 'summer' tires for rear.

That's a pad, a suitcase, and son's bike for vacation. This is the first car I've had that loaded easily maintains 80mph up the mountains in western Maryland. Sweet. Many *****, but I thank Mercury for making it.
