I know Mike was looking into getting those, but chose against them. I at first though they were fairly cool, but after a while they seemed too busy to me.

I checked into getting them and American Racing told me they wouldn't work because they are rear wheel drive wheels <img border="0" title="" alt="[Confused]" src="images/icons/confused.gif" /> , and our cars uses front wheel drive wheels. You may want to check with American Racing and see if they are now compatable with the f-bodies...

Re: Anyone have the AR Longboard wheels??

That doesnt sound right. I have heard of wheels being made differently for FWD and RWD, but overall, which wheels drive the car should matter when selecting wheels. Also, our cars are RWD, why would that person say that we need FWD wheels?

I think you or he is mistaken. There is no reason we should have FWD wheels on our RWD cars. If I'm wrong someone correct me, but this definately soudns wrong to me.

So what happens when you try to rotate them? <img border="0" title="" alt="[Confused]" src="images/icons/confused.gif" />
