To be fair, the other guy is quite happy with the trade also - and he got 17x11 in the rear now, where I've stepped back to 9.5" wide in the rear.

I've always wondered what a matched lip color would look like on these cars.

In to see results

Any idea when you plan to get them back?

Should be ready on Friday, so I hope to have pics over the weekend. The only potential "gotcha" I know of right now is if they can't get the new front tires in pretty quick.

As of now, the car is still sitting on jackstands. They are re-spraying 2 of the wheels, as they were not happy with the finish. If the shop wasn't 2 hours away from me, I'd have more details. I won't have them until the middle of next week or so.
*sigh*

Old wheels...
I remember a while back we talked because I also have the timeless 2's. I had front's redone by boyd to clear the c5 brakes. Are you still running the C5 brake setup. Do you still need the spacer?

I was still running spacers on those, yes. I don't need them with the HP's now.

Thanks for the comments everyone...I'll post pics as soon as I get them...

nice upgrade!

If HP would make a damn 17x11 wheel these would probably be the most popular wheels for T/A's

Awesome looking wheels! I purchased a set of RPM 505s a few weeks ago, and the rears are being widened to 13" so I can run 345-30-19s.
