i pulled my stock fat five wheels off when i recieved my new ones. i dont know how the old ones went. does it matter if i put them on backwards or anything???
also the inside of the rim is very rusted. any suggestions? i tried castrol purple and some sos pads. that barely touched it.
thanks

Just match up the tread pattern on the tire. Make sure the arrow is facing toward forward rotation and it shouldn't matter which rim goes where.

About the rust, I wouldn't know. We don't have rust in Southern California. h:

 

Wanna sell your fat fives? ;p

 

There are some chemical agents on the market that will eat rust away, try your local hardware store. A dremel will also do wonders, got one at a pawn the other day for nothin', lovin' it. In addition, you might want to spray something on those once cleaned up to limit future rust growth, a sealer perhaps.

 

plz plz plz do not use SOS pads. They scratch and mar your rims. Use a real wheel cleaner!
