Those are HOT!! I think come spring I will be going the same direction. That should give me time for a new clutch, flywheel, mounts, and axles.

Nice.

but Im surprised that there only 4lb light then the stockers are.

My rims are 4lb light then stock and there 18s.

I would have thought them to be like 8lb lighter then the stock 18s my self.

But that is a realy good price man.

Later
