. You can’t beat the price and the looks for 225 per wheel. Ordered the rear ones too but haven’t come in yet. Lighter then racestars and cheaper . I think they look better too. I figure the rear ones are 19-20lb and they are like 40 bucks more a piece . Never seen any 6th Gen with these so thought I might throw them out there for you budget wheel guys that don’t want to spend 1000 per wheel on
Welds, Belaks, etc

Any updates on the rears? Been eyeballing these for a minute, curious about the weight if the rears.

Did you get them mounted on car? Did you go with a 27-28” front tire? Thanks

BTW sillyspeed, the VMS wheels 18x5 and the rear 17x10 wheels can be bought for 260 per wheel and the 18 inch fronts will clear any brake set up.
Wait for mine , by June I will be done using what I have.

I have the standard SS brakes so 17” should clear fine. Just worried about the front tires being similar height to rears

28 " 305 45 17 rears and 28" fronts to match. The 28 inch tall fronts for max roll out advantage when you break the your first beam at the track and a slower front wheel speed . I also thought down the road when I sell the drag pack, the fronts will work on a 6th gen brake configuration or Ctsv caddy.

It would be nice if RC made these fronts in 18”. Just curious what they look like with a 27-28” tire on front with the 17”
