    18" wheels heavier than stock?

    When the UPS guy CARRIED in my set of Weld Pro Stars. He couldn't believe it when I told him that was a set of 4 rims. He said it was the lightest set he ever see/ carried.

    Another "what's the difference between"

    I believe the Ford wheels were all chrome. The Ma Mopar were painted outer wheel. Think they are the same otherwise. BUT I could be wrong.

    custom rally wheel size

    Why not use a 14x5.5 wheel and a tall 14 in. tire. When I had the rallies on the Duster I used the stock 14 in. rim and a 215/70-14 tire.

    Don't have them on mine. But I have always liked them. Been called daisy's, because of the style of the spokes. Been around sense the 60's.
