 I saw them somewhere but can't remember where. I think a member here used them on a desert type buggy project. Was it possibly Lance? On the blue car maybe?

I really like the way they look. Maybe I can eventually find them. They look like  a 14" wheel. I like the narrow tires on the front.

Those look similar to what the Barra2uda wears.  If your thinking about putting them on your Barracuda you'll need new hubs or re-drill the hubs you have for the bolt pattern.  The pattern you have is 4 on 110mm and the pattern on normal auto wheels is generally 5-on-5 or 5-on-4.75.  The ones on the Barra2uda happen to be 5-on-5 

I still don't see what the wheels look like that you're asking about?

Im taking a guess from the pic Wildcat, but the wheels look similar to these rims..

The rear tires look like KL71 Kumho Road Venture MT's
Front tires...nothing I've ever seen before.. But HIGHLY recommend the Micky Thompson Mini-Mags that Lance has up front.. Excellent in the dirt around here!

The fronts are traction tires of some sort. Yokahama and a couple other companies make them.

Yup, almost identical to the Yok's.
