Default New Wheel ****!
Picked up some new wheels a couple of weeks ago. Mounted up my tires, and snapped some quick pictures this afternoon.

Thanks for the compliments! I have a staggered set of 19's for the street, so these are a huge weight reduction over those. Im going to weigh the Welds tomorrow, but I know my other wheels are about 50LBS each.
