Once I get test pieces I'll post more info, but since the business is local to me I can help coordinate if people are interested in getting pieces done.
If be interested in this too for down the road!

Had 1 of these sent to me to decide if I want them - and to check out sizing and offsets. More to report back tomorrow....
Step up! Those look great.

Damn, those look nice

Hopefully the next couple weeks aren't too busy where I can get a lot done!
Did a quick test fit last night.... Wasn't quite where I thought they'd sit (I had measured these at about ET20 so was expecting a pinch more "tuck").
The original plan was to fill-and-redrill centers and swap the existing 1.5" lips for 3.00" lips. After the test fit though, I'm comfortable with 1" more lip.... Any more I think I'll have too much poke/camber to fit "perfect".
So looking at running 1" adapters (keeping current lips) and swapping barrels out for 1.5" larger. I found a guy last night in Canada with a set of barrels, just awaiting pics and pricing.
Should get me a 16"x9" all around, and have some "play" in the offsets using adapters. I'll have to wait and see on those barrels before making any decisions.... Onto the pics!

Was in Milwaukee this weekend for a Christmas Party, and picked these up for a staggering $66 for the pair. I dont have the extra project money this winter to reupholster the original sport seats or get aftermarket seats - so these will work for one summer. A big thanks to xXxGOODKILLAxXx for the referral and info!!!

Those look minty!
More like snowy...

Where in oshkosh are you?

Well - now that Christmas is here and gone it's time to kick it into high gear on getting this beast ready for spring!
My brother got me a nice hardcover Bentley for Christmas, and I also got all new braided stainless brake lines from I.E.
CATuning coilovers should be here hopefully end of next week - and preordered my wheels today as well.
16"x9" 1 piece rollers. Nothing "special", but fit the budget and will look great for at least a year or so. Unfortunately they're not released yet, but I preordered one of the first sets which should be here in early March.
More to come as I get wrenching and parts arrive!!!
-
That sucks. I'd like to see those in person and how they ride when you get them.
