Did you order them off of Summit or somewhere else?

15x8. ordered them last thursday and they came monday. shipped out the same day i ordered them
stanger, the car is running great. very torque and fun to drive around town. the motor isnt tuned so i cant really get on it too hard yet. i was going to go today but then something came up. the trans brake isnt wired yet but thats not NEEDED for the track......i just want it when i go.
the tires up front are so narrow, its like having power steering again since there is so much less contact with the ground. couldnt possibly be easier to steer

that looks sexy! How wide are the rear draglites? All of the 15x8's are on back order on Summit

i have center caps, they are in my garage in the boxes they came in because thats where they look the best
the wheels are weld racing drag lites
thanks for all the compliments. cant wait to hit the dyno and then the track. pretty much just need to wire up the trans brake and get a new blower belt and im good to go

did you have any clearence issues with the fronts, like hitting the calipers? i just put a set on last week and i had to get wheel spacers and longer studs to get them to work. but i have some junkyard 5 lug swap on mine. also thanks to the guys who helped me on that, i did get them on. will take pics soon. my sig speaks for itself.
