hahaha I was wondering when we would meet on here. I was planning on buying wheels online... do you think you guys could test fit a set that you have in stock just to see if the size fits?(wheels and tires)

ps. People keep telling me that your pushing like 20lb of boost or that you have like a 2.7 pully and stuff. I just looked at your sig, they must be exaggerating I guess. btw, you going to autorama?

i feel dumb, but how wide is that in inches? also I would like to know what size wheel that will fit on. I have seen wheels that have the tire kind of bowing out from the wheel as if it was too wide for it.
