I have a nice set of steelies from a D150 that I used as drag wheels for my car. drilled, tubed, etc... I measured the width 15 x 8. they are nice and wide and look similar to the late 60's steelies, but better size. probably wouldn't be too hard to weld up the holes, but what, if anything, would that do to the wheel balance?

Allen Here's a novel idea, let's not throw a bunch of parts at the car hoping it will fix the problem and instead spend a little time diagnosing it first. Life was a little easier when I was just a wrench.
