Those do look great. Big fan of the 17/15 combo. Was real close to going this route over the Darkstars.

They look great on the car. That silver plays off good with that setup.

I have the 17x4.5 fronts available in polished and black finish. The polished wheels are 550.00 shipped each, the black centers adds 49.00 per wheel.

Are they "streetable" or race only? What kind of lug nuts, shank or bulge cone?

Looks real nice BTW.

All performance based items will carry a disclaimer for "not for highway use" but what you do with said parts are up to you. It comes down to the scenario that you can't put a tire on a 4.5" wheel that was designed as "factory" equipment, so therefore you assume the risk.

anyway... the Street Lite wheels are setup for shank style lugs.

If you want a more "street friendly" front wheel, go with the 17x7 and run a 225 or 235 size tire.

The web page says street/strip wheel. It has a really thick hub.

It doesn't say "not for highway use" anywhere on the website or the wheel. I'm not really sure where you are pulling that info from. I have a good idea though.

Yes, they are a street/strip wheel and I drive them on the street all the time.
