Thanks for the input guys. The tires are 285/30/19 on the back, and 245/30/19 on the front. They are 19X8 in the front. I need to get an extra set of wheels for the track but $ is tight right now. I have almost no traction in 1st gear with these (H/C Car) They look good though!

I'm thinking of having the spoke part powdercoated gold to go with the vinyls I put on last year, I think it would look pretty nice.

Love it... I always thought the mesh style rims look best on the TA.

Nice wheels but would be a lot better in 18" and wider with even more lip IMO
