recommendation, which was to just cut off the excess length. They used a

you can fit wire wheels for show, and then easily revert back to steel (or
alloy) wheels for everyday driving. The wires look great, but some people
(like me) feel they are less practical than bolt-on wheels.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
