Subject:15x6.5 Mercedes wheels, BFG AT's on syncro
From:Sam Walters

Syncronauts and others,

I recently put BFG AT KO's 215/75R15 tires on the 15x6.5 Mercedes steel
wheels
that I purchased from Tire Rack at $40 apiece (set of 5 $234 w.
shipping).  We discussed these a good bit about 6 weeks ago for anyone
who wants to check out the archives.
They bolt right on with the nuts from the alloy wheels but I replaced
those with a more appropriately tapered one from the FLAPS - took 5 sets
of 4 (114x1.5) at $6 a set.

Will comment (pros and cons from limited driving) and post pictures -
hopefully by the weekend.  Swamped with work, but in quickly scanning
the email from the last 4 or 5 days, I say that this topic was once
again being discussed.  Just wanted to put this out there.

Will arrange to post the pictures at syncro site or somewhere.

I cannot respond to emails this week, so please wait for the post.
