Check his web page link. Great Web site, lots of good info there, and great pictures. Some of the links aren't working right now, but GroovyJ promised to fix them, right GroovyJ .

18x10 on the rear, 17x8 on the front, I don't go over speed bumps, I can only think of 1 public road in Rochester that has speed bumps.
