I haven't even had a chance to drive it yet. Rained all day in Chicago and looks like tuesday is the same.

I'm just a fan of larger wheels. If I was having difficulty hooking up at the track, I would have probably gotten the 15" for just track wheels. But the last time I went to the track in nov. I was launching at 4K and dead hooking on my Nitto's. I'm perfectly fine with that. Plus the 17" just look awesome compared to the 15" IMO.

I have the 15s and i have to say that 17s do look really good. It almost makes want to get them but my car is a street/strip car and the 15s are going to help hooking up.

Thanks. The reason I liked them is because they are different and the look fits the car perfectly. Granted they won't be different for long but they are still less common as Z06's, Zr1's and speedlines.

I like them because they look great (in both sizes), they are lighter weight than your average street wheel, and they dont cost an arm and a leg like Fiske or CCW. Looks very good on every car I have seen, cant wait to get my set sometime in the future.

I suggest Jegs or Summit. Or call Billet Specialties directly and see if they will sell them to you, since they are most likely going to be drop shipped anyway
