Take that lift kit off and put some H&Rs on it lol. Finally glad to see some good pictures of a V with those wheels. They look sick but damn does the stock ride height suck.
What are your plans for the centers on the rear wheels. Thats my main turn off for those wheels is not being able to puit a center cap in it and having the bolt sticking out.

We will do something with center caps if I have to make some I will...

Why don't the caps fit in the rear? After seeing them on the car, i really like them! Not too crazy about the spoke design because i normally like a more subtle look with less spokes but they still look great! And not that 1/2" width is a big gain over stock but it would be nice.
The center cap issue kills it for me though!
Also, how do you like the 275/35 and 245/40 combo on the tires? Been back and forth on going that slight bit shorter or sticking with the stock 275/40 and 245/45 diameter...

The axles stick out pretty far in the back...
so far the rims and tires have only seen about 100 miles! Changed the fluid in the new rear we are bringing it to NED friday night to see how these axles hold up...

Looks damn nice, did not know they were 9" widths, more points!!!
Fawk em on the 4X4 jokes, you will appreciate the clearance when you load the back seat and trunk with race gear, drag radials and cans of 110 octane.

Ive had myself (6'5 300 lbs), my brother (6'5 300 lbs), two girls in the back(250 lbs total) on an hour trip and never had one single problem, thats with a full nitrous bottle(24lbs) and a full nano bottle(15lbs) in the spare tire well along with prolly 30 lbs in cleaning supplies in the trunk. Didnt need the 4x4 clearance for that.

you guys with the TD wheels should get a set of these Center caps and see if they will give you enough clearance in the rear..
looks great BTW but you have to ditch the silver front center caps.. TD wheels are my favorite option for a black V
