Looking for lighter 15 wheels

[Tim the Teacher]

I will probably buy the Slipstreams tomorrow. They seem to be the best deal at a TCB price. JLBMotorsports has the 15x7's in Gun Metal for 465.00 shipped. That damn Christmas check from Momma is almost gone. The Falken RT-615's can be had at EDGE racing for 341 shipped.

Nice... you're ride will look good with my wheels!

I chose the flat gun metal and now the website is asking me for hub bore 56.1or 67.1... Which one?

I thought you wanted the polished lip?

[Tim the Teacher]

Since they are going to be track wheels I thought the polished lip would get scratches from track debris.

Did ya see these rims??

[Tim the Teacher]

yeah...but they are in a 6.5 width

Tim,

www.18racing.com

has slipstreams listed for $470 shipped. I call them and ask them if they can beat the price that you were quoted from JLB. Work them against each other. If they won't beat the price, just buy from JLB.

just my luck...no gun metals available for 3 months on a special order. 18 racingis going to send me a picture of a new color "absolute black" which they say is a little lighter than flat black. I may just go for the blacks with the polished rims like I started with.

These are sweet and come in 15x8.

Thanks Sammm,

They are almost 15 pounds and the hubs are too big. I am still looking....

[Titus]

Those are the ones that Driftdevil recently picked up, but he got 15x7.

[Tim the Teacher]

18racing just called and said they might have a set of Gun Metal Slipstreams w/polished lip......good compromise for me if they find them in the warehouse.

I ended up ordering the Slipstreams in Absolute Black...they have a matte finish that is lighter than black. Go figure.

A for all the suggestions.
