Default Got my 17" Billet Specialties in...*Updated pics 5/24*
I ended up getting the 17x7 and 17x11 setup. Saw this on a couple of cars and I really liked the setup and stance.






Just a few pics until I can get the rear tires. The fronts already have tires mounted on them so I might throw up a teaser pic when I put it on the car. Cant wait to get these mounted on the car!!


The car they are going on:



Should look pretty sweet once I get them on the car!

What was your back spacing on these. I called BS and he said to get the back spacing I thought they would do that?

Nobody around my neck of the woods has these wheels so im good to go for now lol. I just got some Yokohamas for the front and Im lookin at the 325 M&H DRs. Gotta find a way to hook up decently on the street. Street tires dont hook up until the middle of 4th.
