Listers,

Yesterday the new dayton 15x5 wheels arrived from Martin/CT.  The 185x15
Veredestein tires were alread here from BWW.  Today I had them mounted an
balanced at local chain tire store.  No problems so far.

On the age old subject of size(s) I would report that I am happy with the 5
inch rim width combined with the 185 profile. Glad I did not go for the 185/70
profile.

The std profile 'look' is good - not too fat, and not too thin.  I will put
them on the car on Sunday, and expect that they will fill the wheel well just
fine with the 26.25 diameter and the 5 inch rim/185 tire.

I can recommend Martin in CT - he was very helpful and responsive as a source
for daytons - at a good price. BWW was ex stock on tires.
