For those of you looking for tires, I shopped around and WS6 Store had the Nitto 555s (not the 555-R drag tires) for $202 each, free shipping (and tax free)! I ended up ordering 2 315/35/17s for my new wheels.
Also, for those asking about lug/locks, Thunder Racing had their black Friday sale going on and I got the Gorilla Locks at a discount! Might want to ask Thunder if they will be on sale again, maybe because of Christmas. I got the "Acorn" style, and each lug is a lock.

I went with the Nitto 555's for the rears for now (really didn't want to go any cheaper than that, no kumhos or sumos). My front tires are Yoko's and they're practically brand new. Maybe when I need new tires again, I'll get the GSD3's all around.

The Goodyear Eagle F1 GSD3's are amazing...if you can afford them. Those are the ones that I really wanted, but they're expensive and hard to come by. Most places I checked with locally don't stock them, they're special order only. Discount Tire quoted me $347 a tire! This was for a 315/35/17 btw.

This is the one off Thunder's website:
Part # 157-71633N
Gorilla Wheel Lock System, Acorn, Closed End, 20 PK (1 lock per stud), 12mm x 1.5
Regular Price: $44.99 - $4.50 (Black Friday discount)
I tried calling my local parts stores and no one stocks the Gorilla's. Only place local to me was Discount Tire but they were more expensive.

Nice wheels!!!!! I lost count on my wait time, but they are close to assembly. I can't wait to get my FM5's.
I had to go this route. My rear is narrowed 6", so no used market for those, especially with titanium black centers. My rear still isn't here, so I'm use to the wait game.
Definetly post up some pics when you get them mounted. By the way, where are you going to have them mounted?
