| I'm torn with the ideal that it needs to be smaller, but kind f like the wider look. I found a set with a 1 1/4 width and may get those but not sure. When I get the car done it will be much easier to tell but for now this is all I got for a pix. | |

- Oh Yeah here's a Before and After of the rim. Bead blasted then sanded by hand with 320,500,800,1000,1500, and then finished with 3000 to achieve the look. 2 hrs worth of sanding.
Wow, that's some dedication! Worth it though, they look great! | |

| Love the wide whites. We had them on all our Funeral cars including suburbans and it was a sad day here when they were no longer available. Those wheels are not the same without them. My opinion only of course. Lorne. | |

| I only want 1" not the 1.3 which is about 1-5/16"
Just sent them an email since I just noticed they custom cut there own white walls. So just maybe I can get what I want. | |

| Well it looks like I will be getting my 1" white wall. The company said it wouldn't be a problem. Thanks for the link Pat. | |
