I also was considering these. I love the dish and split five spoke design. But I just don't care for the new style where the end of the spokes curve in like this one.

The only killer on those are.....they're getting up there in the cost also. I would stick to 17's with those if they had a 17x9. They only have a 17x8 and a 17x10. Then when you go to 18x9 and 18x10 the price goes to about 650/wheel fronts and about 750/wheel rears. And that's with a high polish that costs an extra 55 a wheel for clear coat so you won't have to continue polishing. So that brings it to 1400 for the fronts and 1600 for the rears. That's getting up there. CRAP!!!! I may just have to suck it up and spend more than I planned. I just didn't want to.

I really think a 8in wheel would look good in front especially with the right back spacing. |

Yeah.....it's just a little harder calculating backspacing in millimeters like they do now. And I can't stand that "sunk-in" look. Plus, I like to have as much tire as possible up front also. But, if I knew the spacing would be right...I'd consider it. I LOVE this wheel.........

I post over at protouring.com and they are a sponser. Boze seems to be real helpful and will work with you on the backspacing plus if you register over on pro touring then I believe you'll get a little discount. BTW 1" = 25.4mm if you need to convert the backspacing. |
