Default finally after 10 months!

finally after 10 months of waiting and lots of calls to american racing, i now have the wheels i've been wanting. 18x10 black dale jr killers with 285-35-18 nittos all the way around. dont know yet how that wide in the front will be, or if it was a mistake not going smaller but oh well. they fill out the wheel wells perfect with no rub.

sorry guys it was dark when i got them on yesterday. i got them through the local shop but any tire shop can get them.(maybe) the 18x8 you can get all day long but the 18x10 has been backordered for about a year now. i was lucky enough to get 4 of them from a couple warehouses that didn't know they had them. as for the cost with the tires they were 2300.00
