This wheel pack features a variety of wheels including real-life stock wheels, lowrider wheels and racing wheels.
Once installed these wheels can be purchased at in-game tuning shops around San Andreas such as Wheel Arch Angels, Loco Low Co. and Transfender.
All wheels are SA:MP compatible and won't affect the handling of your car, just like SA's original custom wheels.

SA:MP Instructions
To install this mod for SA:MP only, follow above instructions but for step 1 navigate to GTA San Andreas\SAMP\custom.img instead of gta3.img
Advanced Users
If you only want certain wheels from the pack you can only replace the corresponding .dffs (use the list above to help you).
You can also rename the files to replace other wheels if you prefer.
Please note: if you only choose certain wheels you cannot use the veh_mods.ide provided, you must manually edit the relevant lines using a text editor.
For example if you want to install only wheel_sr3.dff, then you must change the following line
1074, wheel_sr3, vehicle, 100, 2097152
to
1074, wheel_sr3, epoxiwheels, 100, 2097152
This tells SA to use the custom epoxiwheels.txd instead of vehicle.txd, if you do not follow this step correctly the wheels will appear white.
