jesus why cant a company just do something right for once??? dont even say anything about the damn product till you have full sets of all sizes to sell, and have done all testing on most of the popular cars people run today! these guys have BIG money and it seems they want to put as little as they can into doing a good job and customer satisfaction and care! just like the damn billet specialties stuff not fitting without grinding on some cars, yet sponcers get on here and advertise..... but then when someone says something they try to make us sound crazy for expecting a set of wheels to fit without custom work and grinding?

I wonder what will happen once the new ones come out. Do you think they will have 2 p/n's for the same size wheel?

Any pics of 17" wheels? Would these be a safe street wheel? I'm thinking about getting some 17's with 315 mt's and call it a day
