Default Ordered 17" Street Lites today....

Finally pulled the trigger on a set of 17x9.5/17x11 Billet Specialties Street Lite's today. 2 week build time, so I should have them a little after Christmas I hope. The car came with the black Torque Thrusts, but I just don't care much for them. They are pristine and less that 1000 miles on them and will be for sale once the new wheels arrive.

I'll post pics of the new setup asap!

I don't necessarily blame you. I kinda wish I'd gone with a 17" out back too...had I kept them I'd probably bought a pair of 17x11s and put a street tire on them.
