then just ignore it, cuz if your looking to go fast for little money, then you've found the wrong car. its gonna take me a good amount of work to get it down in the 13's. and the rims on the sig are Fikse FM5s, about $900 a wheel.

but you did a pretty good deal IMO, sold 1 car, got a bad *** bike, and still have a F-body. ya its an LT1, but they sound better. nothing more than that though.......

Idk wtf they are, but i hear they weigh next to nothing, and there strong as ****. only problem is i dont care about that stuff when the car weighs over 4200lbs. i just love the way they look. still no luck finding knock offs. rice rockets have some but not in the 5x5 bolt pattern

I actually did the same thing. Sold my 2000 Z28 and got a 2003 R1 and a 1994 Formula. I kinda regret it though
