Well... I just decided to look at my receipt today and google the part numbers. Looks like I might be getting the black ones after all. I emailed Jim's (after too long probably) to check since I stated in the email that I wanted them polished, but when I check the part numbers they come back as black centers. I guess it wouldn't be the end of the world, but we'll see what happens I suppose.

I ordered mine two weeks ago. Hoping to receive them within the next couple weeks. I did 15x4's and 15x10's. I'll be running a 275/60/15 Nitto drag radial in the rear with a MT 26 inch front runner. My car has factory springs with a heater hose mod in the rear. Hopefully I won't have any fitment issues.

Haha I will be happy with the black ones. Just wanted the polished since everyone else seems to have black wheels these days. Turns out these wheels can only be ordered in black anyways. Don't know why they couldn't just skip the anodizing process, but I guess that's how it is.

Thanks. I got a tracking number for mine Friday. Hopefully I'll have pictures on the car by the weekend.

Got them today. Hopefully they'll be mounted and on the car by the weekend.




One thing I was a little disappointed to see was that the backs of the 17's are polished, but not the backs of the 15's. I wonder why that is...



Here's the weights...
17x7 = 17 lbs
15x10 = 17.5 lbs
BFG 225/50/17 = 26.5 lbs
ET Pro = 31.5 lbs

Thanks for the weights.
Can you remove the 'collar tag'? - go tag-less.

That little red sticker? I would imagine so. Haven't decided if I'll take that off or leave it yet. They stay on surprisingly well actually!

That is pretty weird...not sure why they would polish one and not the other.

You can remove it. It's just a sticker, however it's there to cover the slight wave in the aluminum where the welds meet on the backside.

What are the back spacing on your 15x10s?

Those are going to look great. In my opinion, the sizes you got are perfect. Also interested in what the rear wheels backspacing is. The lips on them look huge.

Can't wait to see those mounted. I'm considering a 17x4.7/ 15x10 combo. I just hate to run a big front spacer.

Just the front mounted for now... Crappy cell phone pic, but this is what the car currently looks like.


Hoping to have pictures by Monday.
