Ok, got some more info. First off, they ARE apparently the ET street version, though they are apparently so close to the others its kind of interchangeable. Second, I apparently stole them, as they want about $200 a piece to replace the damaged one. And that's for an unrestored, unfinished rim. Which I would need to have shipped from Washington. So, I'm going to touch base with a couple of welding places, see what I can do to fix it, then probably take Mongo up on having them refinished, though I will probably have the spokes powdercoated black first. Fun fun!

Doh. Yeah, guess I didn't think that quite through, eh? Let you know when I get her put to bed for the winter, I can throw those old GTA rims on it and get those unmounted.Originally posted by MONGO View PostThey should be refinished prior to powder coating. Dont wanna mess up the new powder coat!

Picked up a set of tires for it today, made a NOOB mistake, so I'll have to exchange them next week. Told the guy I wanted slightly wider tires than stock, neglected to mention that I wanted to maintain the HEIGHT, so I ended up with 255 70/R15's. Didn't realize until I got them on the car that they are a little TOO tall now, and the fronts actually rub if you turn too sharply. No worries though, I'll just exchange them on Monday and all will be well.too tall.jpg
