So TIG, you like Khumos?? Have I got a great deal for you..... How about a vintage set of "salad shooters" circa 1993 with a near new (1300 miles) set of Khumos on them?

Camaro 69, thanks for the reassurance on the lug centric issue... I was writing at the same time you were. I need to get new lug nuts and when I do Ill clean up the inside of the barrels and back side of the spokes and look for a name brand or part number.

 

absolutely you are fine.

Cam69 commented and since you aren't climbing rocks with the car then you'll be fine

A few years back I paid $450 for my Z06 rims (not knock-offs) and they had crap rubber on them. A local shop happened to have qty 4 275 40 17 Hankooks hanging around which were new and they weren't selling. He dealt them to me for $400 installed so $850 plus $50 to have a machine shop open up 2 hubs and my out of pocket was $900. Do you think you got a good deal? I'd be looking out my window for the police because IMHO, you stole them.

 

You got a good deal, am I remembering right is that the same rims Musicman use to run?

 

did you remove it from the landscaping? I actually liked it

and how do you keep you driveway so clean? I need to know your secret

 

Naah, I didnt remove the farm equipment its an old tiller actually and it was run using a horse. The angle of the pics somehow doesnt let show up. My back yard has an old potato seeder, and another type of hand tiller as well as yet another kind of seeder. Old farm equipment is a big deal out here and readily available because of the very low hunidity levels help preserve them (very slow to rust).

The driveway stays clean because I dont work on the cars in the driveway, only inside the garage. Im actually not allowed to work on the cars in the driveway because of covenant restrictions. Also, I hate when anything of mine leaks, so that helps it stay clean also.

 

Nice wheels!

 

Nice wheels. What size tires are those? (I didn't see that mentioned.)

 

Rears are 17x10 Fronts are 17x9 AFAIK... The seller said the rears were 10.5 but I can tell theyre not by comparison with my C5 Z06 rims.

 

sweet lookin, will look even better with low profile tires in front to.

 

One cheap option you could go with is to get a set of hub centric rings to go on your hubs. They fill the gap between the hub and the wheel barrel so that the wheel becomes hub centric. I did this on one of my other cars when I ran custom wheels. Like others have said, it is not a huge deal but I just did not want to take any chances.
