thanks! you're mad lucky to win those wheels. Been checking your thread for updates Not sure about the specs, After i put the wheels on yesterday, i lowered my car just a little bit more. Havent done an alignment yet but previous specs were factory numbers.

I see that you're local. You should definitely stop by the meets we hold around here now that the weather is getting better.

thanks man, i wasnt a fan of them before as well, especially the older model which has a convex face. The newer models have a concave face. After seeing them on s2k's, sti's and evo.. i fell in love. Dont see many Tl's with them besides dc2many
