Um . .aren't you going too fast as it is? Forget getting sent for a talk at the tower at E-Town, they are going to be waiting for you at the slip booth with pitch forks and torches!

Nice! I tried the poorman's version of that two weekends ago, but they stopped me at tech since the spares are only rated to 50mph... D'oh!

70 lbs of unsprung weight and a crap load of rolling resistance!

OK SRT owners......I know alot of you were watching Powerwagon run the skinnies up front using these wheels.......well they fit.....and very well at that.There is 3/4" between the face of the wheel and the caliper and 3/4" between caliper and inside of the rim.
