I can't see the wheels now.

Well as many know i am going through a divorce so i could not buy the wheels that i was going to. I just could not see spending $1700 + shipping on those wheels although i did want them.
So about a week later i found these from a good friend for $1000 with tires that had 2000 miles on them.

Nice deal John, sorry to hear about the big D, been through a rough one. What size rim, offset, and tire size on the rears, I really want to see that on the ground now.

So this thing started in December of 2006 and it isn't done yet? No wonder you take up for Dave alot. You two must be helping each other not finish your cars.............:biglaugh:

I'll have to read the whole thread from the start so I don't miss any non updates. Maybe this one is through and I just don't know it yet, but I keep reading about installing a ffim.............I'm just saying.

Hey Jay, I got rained out at work today and started working on the car today.
I had a weld that leaked on my sump so i drained the fuel tank and took it back to the shop that welded it. Then i came home and installed my 2 new ss rear brake lines.
