Don't worry... I'm not proud... I'll be sucking up to you when I pull the trigger on these...

I may have heard that you have some special recipe with the guys who make them...

Yup I have a place I've used in the past. I've had a few sets I have fixed for people that have ordered ther own wheels with the wrong offset

Looks good btw Doug

nice - there's an orange SS here in the next squadron with them wheels. yours looks better, though

and Chris - since you're saving up, you may as well go ahead & throw the centerlock conversion in there for an extra dose of awesome

and don't let Pete call you this, that, & the other for not slamming...
the fact that you can actually still clear some curbs puts you a bit above me & Izzy's paranoid about the though of having to dodge every dip, curb, speed bump, and slope in the road

...wait, why am i complaining about my wife NOT wanting to drive my car?!

and on the Invos, they're alright as an all-around tire for sure - solid in the dry & rain, quiet, smooth, and have worn pretty good over the past year & a half. that said, i probably wouldn't use them as track tires on the regular - well i say i wouldn't but ain't had the money to buy any others for hot-dogging around yet

, but i do wish i had the NT-05s for the serious business. not as good in the rain, but pretty sticky when they're warmed up.

I'm still paranoid. I'm not as paranoid of them rubbing as I was earlier before I brought it up a tad. I need to set a tiny bit of camber and I won't have to worry at all. But I'm driving a little harder now and still no rubbing.

I think I'll break out the gopro tomorrow and set it up on the rear...see just how close it gets.

Maybe I'll do the NT-05's next. We'll see....but these Invo's are flippin' sweet.

And whatever you do... let's not curb these new wheels.. Mkay

Was just thinking about your trip to England Green and the chunk taken out of the OEM wheels.

I can't believe I did that.... and entire wheel trashed in all of 3 seconds at 2mph. That's one thing I can't believe GM did...design a wheel that's flush mount with the tire and givem to a bunch of crazed hot head drivers and say...watch the curbs....lol. Everyone hits curbs and rubs....everyone. While I think it looks great, a wider tire should have been put on there (IMHO). EVERYONE was getting curb rash....

Anyway...

The tire sticks out just a tad on these...just enough to where if I do rub the curb, it shouldn't hurt the rim. I'm still going to be careful, but you know. After England Green, ...4 years later, no road rash.

Pete....totally out of the blue here. But, what are the chances of getting these made in blue?
