Ya I had one on my white vr4, I never had any prolems with it, and
They move alot of air.




It gives you about 2 more inches of space in there, for your intake.

They are SSR formula mesh made in japan, really light weight these weigh like 12-13 lbs each. but ya the 2000's ford crown vics and lincoln mark8 have a similar looking wheel, but those are one piece 16x8 0 or 5 offset i think.

Really will /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/dunno.gif



The 14b I rebuilt went out so,

I just picked up a real mits small 16g, like new no shaft play.
reused my 14b ported turbine and o2 housing
gonna port the 7cm one later, hoping for little quicker spool since this will be my daily.

The handling with the 15" inch wheels really sucked the car just felt soft.
The evo suspension didnt work well and handling was just off.
so I picked these up


Old school racing hart 3 piece 17x7 38offset

ya C2's ,right now there 17x7 Im gonna widen them to 17x8 25-30 offset.
Two have pretty beat-up lips, so I ordered some bigger one's from the stanceworks forums.
gonna go from 1" to 2" lips and then fully polish the faces.
