Too late, I was there asking for a set of wheels for my car. Plus I wanted to get some picture for you as well. Let me say Reggie, these things are FIYA!!!

1.

2. Bolts are not all installed yet, but they will be before Reggie gets them.

3.

4. YUM, hub centric

5.

6. Double rolled inner and outter lips. Good luck bending this Reggie! 285/25-20 No problem! LOL

Yeah, I had a couple doubts too when I saw the progress pics.....especially the pic where another split spoke was in the background that I think looks better. But these turned out pretty darned good.
I want these puppies now! Right now! I can't stand riding stock. It's making me feel weird.


Hey Eric, thanks for the preview. Are these the actual wheels?

Yup, these are it. They had the other faces done already but not assembled yet. Pretty quick from the time you made the deposit. Shouldn't be much longer before it's complete... then it's photoshoot time!

Oh Eric, I forgot to ask but what does FIYA mean?
Is that an acronym for cuss words?
