WOW, those look amazing and you don't understand the heart attack I had shipping those out to you. I was on the phone with you getting your address and as soon as I hit send the inventory dropped to ZERO!!

Made a couple phone calls and made the order happen still. Glad you are happy with them and if you need anything else please let me know.

Depending on someones location I can get you into a set of these for around $1700 shipped for the wheels. I can at this time put a set of fronts and rear together once again.

If interested let me know why they last.

my local friday night track does not have the traction for 17" drag radials do do *any* work, and i was tired of my 8 second street car struggling to go under 10's AND it was also causing me to put in a lot of steering wheel down the track which is just not safe.

Hopefully these will do a few things things
1. i can have some more fun at my usual local friday night track
2. stay legal (wheels/tires meet all standards unlike drag only rims/tires) and safe to drive on
3. i am pretty sure since they are sligtly ligher, slightly less drag, slightly more traction than my bogart road race with 295/17" drs that it will give me a better chance at really seeing what the new turbo's potential is.
4. this set up is still legal for true street (lsx shootout) but is a lot more forgiving to wheelspin, which cost me the win last year.

the bogarts are still beside the car with fresh drag radials on those as well. i'm planning on letting a buddy use them until i want them back / sell the car / etc.

ive always wanted to see the car wtih a black center wheel anyways then these popped up.. almost got the bogarts in black center but i think they look beter polished.. but i think these look GREAT! and i'm glad yall do to
