Rims & Tires size and brand?

Anyone know what brand & size these Rims & Tires are?
They look kind of like Cragar's?

Welcome to the site.

Sorry. Don't know the brand or size but they appear to be rear wheel drive rims.
Guessing that car is a rear wheel drive conversion.

They look like Aero's from NASCAR! This was a rear wheel drive conversion from back ten or eleven years ago! These were sold at Barret Jackson in 2008

Thanks guys! Do you think it would be a bad idea to put some Cragar rims that look similar to these? I would need to put spacers on them in order for them to fit.

Yes spacers and our hubs don't like each other!!
Somebody had the studs snap off their spacers just a month or so ago!

Those looks like the regular steel "rock crawler" style wheels.

Pro Comp Rock Crawler Wheels - Best Performing On and Off-Road

Or at least very similar.

Perhaps it was over or under torque that caused the issue! I looked in the search bar but haven't found the post yet!

Those fenders are flared a lot in order fit those wheels. A lot of custom work in that hhr.

Contact Ray at PTezers. He built this car. It is not rwd. It has super wide fender flares that will allow a rwd deep dish style wheel to fit. This was one of the SEMA cars.
