Thanks for your order at the show, Nick. It was good to meet you guys and we're ready to knock the wheels out as soon as you give the word.

I'm with you guys on getting it down as low as possible while still maintaining a little margin of safety on the ride height.

Talk to you soon

Jason thank you. My wife and I have been pondering on wheels for a couple months now and after seeing them first hand we where hooked. We liked the reared x more and the 19" front I am sticking to, I just need to decide what I am going to do with the axle so I can tell you backspace on either the 20x10 or 20x11. You just can not beat the deep dish wide look and at this point I don't need any of this but hell at the money spent I better make sure I am completly happy. I am taking of for the holiday in the morning so so I didn't call you back like I said in the vm but I will have a solid answer early next week and then you can get started on them. Thanks again and you and your wife have a great holiday.

OK, talked to my axle guy....talked to Jason and a few others that everyone had great info let alone what I received from others here. Jason is sending me a 20x10 5.75bs wheel and I am going to put it up under my car and see how I look for room on the inside and outside of the wheel for going the 11" route. From there I will figure out where that 1" extra will fall on the backspacing spec and then......minus what i want to cut off a axle to make the backspace less and my front dish LARGER!!!!

Did all that make sense?

Thanks Jody, at first I thought I was crazy for my thinking but really in my spot I am not going back wards and its not too much more to have the axle built alittle shorter from what I was going to be spending so hell if I can gain another inch......well everyone would like to see another inch on the lip right

Hey Jody did you see that black truck we just finished with the twins?

Thanks I read you looked at these wheels at the GG show also. Kinda nice to have the show displays seal the deal seing them in person.



So I have a test wheel here, have not opened it yet but I might get a chance tomorrow to put the car on the rack to test fit it and take some spec's. If not tomorrow for sure this weekend after the dust clears with work for the week....damn work..I want to play with my car
