Just thought I would pass this info on. I know I looked high and low for an answer and never found one. I did the mini truck disc brake conversion on my 40. I did a ton of rersearch and found out alot of wheels either hit the steering arm or rub on the caliper. I also wanted a black wheel.

I heard the cragar soft 8 might work. I went to America's Tire Co. and ordered one. I tried to bolt it up with no luck. Did somemore research and thought I would try a Pro Comp Series 8069. Its an aluminum wheel that is very cool, just what I wanted. I got a 15 X 8, with a -19mm offset. Brought it home and it fits like a glove. I ordered the rest today and they should be in next week. I will post picks when they are mounted.:bounce:
 
You should have searched this forum more thoroughly. There is tons of info on the subject on here.
 
If I'm remembering the 8069 part right, I've got the same pro comp's ib 17"'s black on my FJC . Had them for 2 years, I've been very happy with them, look awesome, and held up pretty well (minus the inevitable rock rash with the aluminum tire) with some pretty tough wheeling.

P.S. Got any pics of these on the 40??
