Got a set of GTO Spares with M&H tires. come with 1.5" adaptors to fit corvette bolt patter and clear caliper

Why are they so fucking high? There is no reason? Your telling me that a 4.5 inch wheel costs more to make than a standard 7-8 inch wide billet wheel that sells for 3-400 bucks? No, its because some poeple have more money than sense. I'll keep my heavy ass wheels and safe that 1000 bucks and buy a bigger turbo.

Uhhhh... the V2 comes with a pump for the run flats.

LMAO!

It is what it is. Just like there are a variety of performance cars to choose from. A fox body Mustang is a really affordable way to go racing and not everyone chooses to use that platform. Just because they don't, doesn't make them "Have more money than sense"

keep the alumastars

I am going flat black with black rims just for you

They want take your order on they phone want you to send them all your info n card # and then they will talk about ordering

You will need that bigger turbo if you ever get by that purple lt1.....

Forgeline makes some really nice wheels also, and I have seen them on several Corvettes, not saying they are cheap, but they look nice..:bigthumb:

I just cant grasp how they can charge 1/3 MORE for a wheel that takes less than 50% the size billet to make... The 17x9.5 rims are 335 dollars for the polished rims and the 4.5's (less than 1/2 size billet needed to machine the 4.5 wheel.........) costs a full $210 dollars more. Less tie mto machine, less cost of billets, less waste to pay to have recycled... I just dont understand the logic.

Couple of things to consider. I was talking to Rich Bogart and he was telling me that that skinnies are typically forged and 1 piece billet where the rears are typically 2 to 3 piece wheels, because the fronts have less material to absorb the entire front weight of the car or truck. The second is alot of the more expensive wheels are SFI certified and are serialized. doesn't mean anything to the racing scene around here but on an NHRA track if you are going fast enough it means everything, and the SFI company charges the wheel manufacturers to approve their wheels and for the serialized stickers..:bigthumb:

I emailed BS and asked them why they were so high and thats what they said. The 9.5 wheels use a spun barrel as I suspected and the billet center. The 4.5's are 1 piece which takes a lot longer to machine but that doesnt mean I have to like the price. Damnit I want a set of those wheels but im not paying a grand for 2 front wheels.

No one said you had to. Rock them knock off torque thrusts.

Weld RTS isn't bad as long as you get the ones without the SFI tag..:bigthumb:

I paid around 1200 for the whole set of rts on my gn and they are stamped sfi 15.1. I'm
