    This one? If so, it belongs to Mike Cooper, but I have not seen him post here. Maybe someone else in the Joplin area could find out.

    Cant see that being a problem. Thats a real old school look. Had the same rims on my first Mav project 20 years ago. Always liked that classic slot look. Had 15x8 on rear and 14x6 up front. Looked nasty with the 275 60 15 under it.
    Dont see many of those rims anymore. They are still produced though. Go for it!!!

    most people consider it a compliment when you ask to duplicate a certain look or upgrade they have on their cars. it always is nice to know someone else likes what you have done enough to copy it. i"m sure he'll feel the same way.

    Thanks for the reassuring posts guys, I just want to show the respect and ask, better safe than sorry!! I figured he wouldnt mind but ya never know. I just thought it would be similar to going to a party and find yourself wearing the same shirt as someone else!!:D

    14x7 - 195/70-14
    15x9.5 - 265/50-15

    Also, not sure if anyone mentioned, but a BIG thanks to Jeff and Misty Phillips (and their kids). they have been a huge help in Joplin; they joined the family and jumped in full bore. They even payed to have us some AWESOME BBQ delivered on show day.....and even served us!
    Its great people like this that make the MCG so special (y)

    Yes! They ARE great people. They heard that blu and family were coming (we were late to everything). Food had run out so they went and got more so that me and my family would not be left out. That was totaly awsome! I was hungry too :D
