The stock rim is 11 inches and it's hard to find tires for it. Is there another rim that will bolt up to the T3 front hub that would give me more tire options?

Just got it like 2 or 3 weeks ago. It gets right up, as fast as the T3? I dunno yet, but I doubt it.

Well, it's cool R.

Is the T3 bolt pattern 4/156? Where can I find this info?

Just to add that if you look in the JW Replica manual they used to use a 10 inch front in a 9 and a 7 inch width,with a 3+6 and 2+5 inch offset respectivly made by company call mitchell wheels,but of course that was an 85(not sure if the same as an 86/87)and way back then.

They changed for 86/87. There is no offset for the front rim. They are centered and are 11".

So the bolt pattern is 4x170 then?

I thought it was 4x156, unless the rears are different.
