...and like I said, got all four for only $670, that's it, NO taxes, NO shipping fees, great deal, the best I've seen as far as Torque Thrust D's are concern.

Wow galactusz, thanks for that website. The rim pricing is pretty damn good, but what got me really interested is the tire pricing. I have been searching for some decently priced 245/45 Nitto555r drag radials for a while and it looks like for just under 400 bucks I can get a pair shipped! AWESOME!

Most people rub with a 215 60 15 on that wheel.
Shelby drop the arms and load up on the -camber when you get it aligned and you won't

ADRIAN1,

You would want 4.5" of backspacing for both the front and rear rims.

You bought 7 inch wide rims. We are talking about 8 inch wide so the backspacing requirements are different
