I may move slow, but I'm movin'...
I first started looking for new wheels back in Nov.
Well, I finally picked them up today.
17x9 Stern Replicas. Thanks to Kevin and Mark at Performance Autosports in Richmond, great shop down there.
And thanks to Cory for testing the water. Your OK on these wheels went a long way in my decision.
Now to order street tires for them. I'm leaning towards the Falken Azenis RT-615.
Looked at Kumho MX and Nitto NT-01, but think the Falken will serve me best.

Good choice in rims Greg. From Cory's post, the price is right too. Now I am waiting for pics of them on your car!

Come to think of it, those would look very nice on a Lightning...especially a Red one Greg
If you buy me some I will be happy to donate my truck as the test bed so you can see what they look like on a Lightning.
Very nice,
Ken
