saw them in person today. VERY sharp. they are 315s but I m not sure if they are 18s or 17s the wheel is 11 inches wide though. I cant wait to get my 315 35 18s. I need traction in a bad way.

Hey Ellis can I come over to check those badboys out in person ? And besides we need to try them out on my '71 to make sure I want to copy you like I think I do BTW is that the slide open MAC box ? If it is I just bought one for a backup/mobile type of box so I can leave my big box in one spot. It's a very well designed box IMO.
