15 x 10 steels?
Thinking if getting some 15 x 10 steeliness for my Roadrunner. Any thoughts on the weight? Seem damn heavy, but does that matter as unsprung weight?

10's should fit but you will need 5.5 Backspace rims.
Why not just hang on to the tyres and take them to the swap meet next year or give them to someone to take on your behalf or the Nats? Im sure you will off load them there.

I could do Carl, its just that by selling the 295 tyres I could fund the purchase of a pair of smaller tyres to fit 8" rims.
Having tried tyres that are too big for the rims I fully intend to get the correct pairing next time. I did squeeze the 295s onto 8" rims but was decidedly unimpressed with the cornering which bordered on dangerous
Did a total of 28 miles and took them off.
