What do you guys think of the Summit Sport Wheels?

http://store.summitracing.com/partde...5&autoview=sku

I think that they look like Welds but way cheaper. I'm thinking about getting two of them in a 16" 4 lug and throwing a set of slicks on them, so I've got an extra set of wheels for the track.

They look exactally like welds... they look good to me and for the price you really cant beat it ya know.

Also, why do they say welds arent good for the street?

Hmm, maybe I'll reconsider getting those wheels, do you know which ones like to crack? And what the hell, I could have sworn that I had seen some of the sport wheels in 16"s yesterday, now I can't find them, maybe I was just on crack yesterday.

+1 esp. when guys have welds on a stock 5.0. I five spoke of any kind looks so much better.

There was just a thread about these wheels from summit. I still think they are 5 lug, the angle that the picture was taken from makes them look like they're 4 lug.
