    Got these Tuesday, just in time for the Suby Challenge this Saturday!

    They are almost 1" less in diameter, so it effectively dropped my car about 0.5" and made the same increase in wheel gap.

    Can't wait to really test them!

    I dig that, man! I was thinking of painting or powdercoating them after the challenge.

    They make those tires in 17's right? I thought most tires came in a 17" size

    So, you wanna trade?

    Wait, my source says the '98-'99 wheels are 17lbs and the '00-'01 are 16.5lbs, I think I'll keep mine!

    Those actually look really good on your wagon. Sometimes smaller is the way to go, I guess?
