DONT BUY RACESTAR 17 rim
Unless you do the V6 conversion they won't fit STILL and you need to grind your calipers to make it clear, they aren't made properly and for just off center. Terrible quality, their customer service blame the wheel machinist. They won't clear SS rear/front backs due to "caliper being inconstant sizes. I've tried 4 sets different batches and no positive results.

That sucks I wanted to get some, I hate how expensive welds are I guess you pay for what you get.

Official email from them to me:
John: There are some issues with the brake calipers clearing on the outside barrel of the wheel. The tolerance on the size of the brake calibers is different on some cars. We have sold wheels to go on about 40 cars to date and received calls back from two people about having to grind down the side of the brake caliber about 50/1,000ths to clear the brake caliber. We will modify the wheel on the next production run to accomidate this. Thanks ___
