I run 215/70R15s BFG Rain,Mud,Snow on my 87 syncro westy, had to just
barely clip the rear part of the front wheel wells, put the little stock
mud flap back in the cut out part, looks factory!  The rims are custom
white baja spoke heavy duty steel trailer wheels drilled for 115mm/5 bolt
pattern (mercedes, audi, LMB's) costs are 85.00 each.
Email me for details.
