can someone give me a link to a 16x7, 5x4.5" bolt pattern, 4.5" BS cragar soft 8 wheel?! i CANNOT find the 16x7, 5x4.5 with 4.5" of BS, all i can find with the 16x7 is 4" BS. maybe im jus a hooligan, i dunno...in any case, can someone link me up?


There isn't a Cragar Wheel (or any knockoffs), that are 16x7 with 4.5" bs. Only 4" BS is avaliable. If you stick with a 225/75 or 235/70 tires, you will probably not have any rubbing issues. If you do, its not going to be anything major.
Not true,I got a set of Unique Steel seris 297(unique steel makes the Crager soft 8's,any rim that looks like the soft 8 is made by unique steel,even the procomp steel rims are to) that are 16x7 with 4.5" BS,I have measured them and they are 4.5".Maybe they where a fluke of nature or put together wrong but I got them(got them from discount tires).

You'll be fine,pound the pinchweld down though.

just look at it this way,a KJ with the Frankinlift(or Rusty's coil lift) can run the MOAB rims with the 245/75's(30.5" tall) with no problems(need to pound the pinch weld though),the MOAB's are 16x8 rims with 5" of BS.So a 16x7 rim with 4" of BS will stick out the same amount as the MOAB's(subtract 1" from wheel width but add 1" for the less BS).Now on a stocker you'll run into problems.
