now i need new tires. i want 31, 32, or 33s. what ever i can pick up cheap problally off craigslist. i had to grind some of the caliper bolt that goes on top of the caliper to get the front wheels to spin. did that and worked perfect.
 
Congats! That sure makes a big difference in the look! Your on your way!

Where did you pick up the wheels from?

Love the steering wheel. I have the same one, along with all the same gauges!
 
Looks good. I think I have that same steering wheel on my CJ5 . Looks like 32s will fit tops. You can pick up used 2 1/2 in. lift springs off craigslist for $100 and clear the 33s pretty easily if you decide to go that route. 33s seem to be the popular size though and command more money for used around here atleast.
 
mrsdalefan picked the steering wheel. i used to have the same on on my 85 monte carlo ss. i took 31s off with the wagon wheels so i know they will work. the small goodyears came with the rims. but they are all weathered cracked on the sidewalls. sooner or later it will have a rustys offroad 2.5 or a black diamond 3 inch lift.
 
Looks good...I guess you didnt need the spacers I sent ya, huh?
