I had never seen those wheels until your pic was posted. Then I open up the latest CHP and saw them (pg 47). You are a trendsetter!

Yes they are you can get other patterns but I always get ford and chevy

I just need to find the right spacers and get some longer studds. They just look so damn Sexy. I got one of the first production sets.

BTW I Figured out that when you are talking to a factory Rep and ordering stuff.."In the Warehouse" means the Ore is in stock and ready to be mined!

No Problems. Untill you mentioned it I forgot you had them! I am prbably going to run 1/2 studs on the back (Axles are drilled) for safety going to need to find some long lugnuts to cover them on my stock wheel

Thanks Doug! I might see if I can get some street wheels made to look simular

Oh man! Those look sawheeet! Much better than the print out but damn - it really sets the look of the body.
Speaking of which...noticed you 'cleaned' that side to get a nice pict

Considering the cost they are seriously worth it, something reminiscient about them?
I miss my tire and rim guy I had in the early 80's. He used to make my ride look much more sleek and sent me a brand new set while living in LA because he thought they would look good on the MC - they did.

Now I'm all depressed...cuz Ellis got em' first and I can't because that would be stupid.
