Cool How you like me now?

I hope Mike doesn't mind but his chrome was too much for me to tell how I would like them.

Guess what? I LOVE THEM!



Now if I can only find someone who'll sell them to me, I'm set.

Those do look sweet. Have you ordered them yet? I also have a FPR TL and would like to see yours with the wheels on before I buy.

Did you try calling Vic at Wheeloptions.com? They are a Discount Tire Center, so I can't imagine that they won't answer the phone.

BTW, those rims look sweet. Are you gonna go 18"?

Well it's been verified by three places so far.

Six weeks and $475/rim (local dealer)
Six weeks and $437/rim (scvmotorsports.com)
Eight weeks and $356/rim (wholesalewheel.com)
Damn, eight weeks!!!
Just waiting on Tim to see what he can do.

I don't think a discount tire store would carry the size I want. 17x7.5 w/ a +55 offset.
Maybe we can get a group buy and they'll be able to get them faster.

The only website I found on the SSR was in Japanese. Can't read it. Do you know where I can find them?

I just reminded him last night, hopefully he'll come up with something. What offset did you get?
