I thought that the 7's were dished more, are the 185's a tight fit on the rims?

If applied properly, that aresol chrome can last a lot longer than you might think.

I think you'll find they are 6" rims, judging by how they fit under the gaurds and how the 185s aren't stretched on them. Rim width is measured inside the rim from bead to bead.

they look good though

I measured the rims before I painted them and they are 7' from the out side edge to out side edge. The 185's are a weee bit stretched on the rims, I will post a pic of the front on view soon.

Yeah mate I think that they just make Monty look just right and he'll look even better once all the painting is finished.

Rim width is not measured from outside to outside though. They will be 6 inch like my 14x6 Watanabes. I have 175s on at the moment.

I have found out that these rims are RS-Watanabe's. They are 13'x7' with brand new 185 60 13's on them.
