Looks real good. Your car would look even better without that factory body kit, IMO.

Summit versions up front? Those actually look really nice with the true weld rears. I've always had sort of a thing for draglites since I used to run them on my old '79 a few years back.

Yeah I was actually thinking that the summit style lugs look better on that style wheel that the big shank styles do on the welds.
I had a set of the summit stars for a while on this car, do you know if the 15x8 5.5"BS draglite style ones fit the rears like the stars do?
