    Bought a used set of Weld Draglites the other day, tell me what you think. They're 15x3.5 and 15x8's. The backs came with 235/60s and I don't think they're quite big enough:)

    I think they look just about right,255/60s about as big as I would go.

    Thanks. I guess i'll order some new caps. I've bought 3 sets of these wheels used and not a center cap for none of them. Don't know what everybody does with'em:huh:

    They look good depending on which angle of the car your looking at. Dead on from the side it looks like it needs a 245 or 255.

    I don't need them, but if you were keeping them, I have new stickers to use on the factory center caps for Comets.
    They look like the avatar in my signature.

    I probably could've used them, it would have made the caps look alot better, but I never could find all the center caps. I found two from the guy I got the car from but he didn't have anymore. :huh:
