No, they are correct. The rears have 245 rear tires and the front have 195. The offset is screwed up on them. Rears have about a 6in backspacing and the front is only like 3in. I only have to deal with them until tomorrow.

I like the wheels in the pictures you just posted better then the black ones you mentioned. Do you still have them or are they whats on the car right now? If so, just leave them until you can get some drag lites or something like that.

If your still going to order new wheels right now and need some that don't cost an arm and a leg get some like knuckles has. They look good on classic Mustangs. My 65 had some like that except the centers were black when it still had the I6.

I ordered the rims yesterday afternoon. They should be arriving today. I still have the ones in the pictures on. Guy I borrowed them from said I could use them until I got a set, so I have to return them soon.
