Looks great man, do you still have the BS streetlites or did you part with em? You may find that the car feels all over the place/walking past the 1/8mi with biased ply rears and radial fronts though - be careful at the track on em

Looks Sweet. I posted a few weeks ago to ask about these wheels and no one replied. Any grinding/spacers front or back?

I like!! Looks really good! Why did you go with a Bias Ply over the Radial in the rear? Being an Auto I would have went with a Radial..even with a 6 speed Im going to gamble with the radial!!

got a deal on them that was just too good to pass up. 125 bucks for the pair and they only had 2 passes on them lol. also, 4.11 rear + 4000 Stall + 150 shot might be fun to plant haha

I cant believe these wheels aren't gettin more love from the members. These are what every has been waiting for: Direct fit, reasonably priced and made in USA! Maybe no one realizes these are alot cheaper than the RT series.

The fronts are like 239.99 each, and the rears are like 259.99 each.

These still are an RT series wheel. Also, as new as they are, many do not know of them yet. Weld has for sure taken the cake with this wheel. At the price, with the fitment, you really cannot beat it.
