thanks for the compliments guys,
im also still debating on an extra set of rears for street use, and eventually mount slicks on these 15's.
17x11 sound nice in the rear,
see CWallens thread on these --> https://ls1tech.com/forums/wheels-ti...owed-rear.html

Good question,
i thought about it alot and even though it would have saved space and weight, i drive the car alot on the street.
i have seen too many threads on broken k members on here from street driven cars. So i decided not to risk it, atleast for now.
I may revisit the idea after the motor build.

I've had my UMI tubular K in my DD Firehawk for YEARS and rock solid.
It's been airborne out of a tunnel near downtown Fort Lauderdale, dozens of potholes in 3 states, and survived a curb that took out my power steering rack and pinion.
I am actually really impressed with how durable my K-member is lol!
EDIT: that same airborne event out the tunnel took out my buddies stock K-member in his heavily modified '02 WS6. His got cracked mine unharmed.
Really nice car you have BTW!
