I have Crappy Tire Nordic Ice Trac and they work pretty good. I think they are 215/65/15 or something like that.

sweet. i've got jeep rims that'll fit then, those black steelies withthe pie shaped holes, and the red and blue stripe on them. ar767's. yee haw!!!
now, what happens when you take the rim off, does that spacer come off with it, or is it even a spacer? i'm talkin about that polished piece behind the rim that's about an inch thick.

I dont believe they have a spacer on them, unless you have added an aftermarket ones.

You need 17"s to get around the Cobra calipers, 15s will def. not fit on them.
