The new guy...

Finally! Got around to getting some more parts for the build...

So I decided to sell the 18x8.5 57xtremes for some wider and lighter rims. I'm going the performance/track route now instead of the "look"

Picked up these online and they were just delivered today! 720Form 17x9 +35 (square set-up). I'll be running a 245/40-17 (V12's) for now. I ultimately want a 255/40-17. The 225's I had on the 57xtremes were not gripping enough with the SC kit...

The new guy...

So...

RPF1's weigh 15.9 lbs per rim (if I'm not mistaken)...

These weigh 16.5 lbs per rim. Plus, they have a 720kg load rating versus the standard 690kg RPF1's have (and most all rims)...

Looks good, friend. Can you PM me the vendor that you got the front turn signals from? The link is dead now (of course), and those would look great on black I think!


Thanks,
Amanda

Thanks for that will come in handy. But I meant the vendor for the front turn signals like the other member had asked?

This was the original thread, but it looks like it was locked down by the admins. Let me do some more digging and I'll find where to get them...
