If you guys read the other thread on them, they should have them shipping out shortly and then the 15x10 with 7.5" BS will be out late summer. Kinda late, but then again after blowing my rear that will give me some time to save up!!

Yup, the 15x3.5's will be at my house tomorrow afternoon. My car is still in storage.. but i will see if i can run over there and test fit one of them on the front to make sure the clearances are all good. I will be sure to take pictures of everything too. I DO NOT have the lug nuts yet though, i should get those in around another week or so. I will keep you all posted.

I ordered them from summit back in january 30th when the expected ship date was mid march. The rears have not come in yet, but the order says the fronts were shipped out on monday, so we will see later in the day!

Will do, I don’t have a scale at home, but I will figure out something for you guys.

I went with just the polished finish. They are going to be track only rims, so I wasn’t concerned TO much with the finish, it wasn’t worth the extra money IMO. I will have to see how good the polishing job is, I can always shine them up myself.

Actually, i just checked the UPS website and they claim the weight of both rims and the packing material is 28 lbs. I am sure summit threw in around 4 catalogs in each corner of the box too...
I will get an exact weight though when i can.

So they will be coming out with the right backspaceing for our cars with the 15x10 wheel? Ialso wonder how big the lip will be on the 15x10.

Alright guys.. here are the pictures i just took. Let me know if you want any pics of specific parts / angles. I will try to get a weight on the rims, and also test fit them on the car too.

Notes:
Centercap is plastic, NOT metal. It does match quite well though
Comes complete with hex head countersunk screws for centercap (comes with allenwrench too)
Only the outer part (what you see) of the rim is polished, nothing on the backside is polished.
My rims were produced on March 1st '08 according to the sticker on them

I'll guess no by looking at them, but we'll soon know for sure.

Default Greg Weld fronts, and prostar rears?????

Good point Josh. I never thought about just running those greg welds in front, and prostars in the rear. That might look simular to the aluma star design, seeing is how the star is much more open. HMMMMMMMM

Sweet! they look nicer than I expected.

Hazard- just one pic with the center cap removed would be great... I probably wouldn't run them.

also, what's the thickness at the mounting holes?
