Back to my original request...post up some pics!

 

pic of wheels are in sig

 

someone had talked about forged ss style wheels but nothing ever came of it . there w3ere some z06 similar wheels but nothing like the SSS

 

What are you switching to?

 

Not sure yet, I haven't started looking yet but something different and most importantly light! I could do Bogarts but they are limited to Quarter-mile track use according to their web site so I couldn't use them on the street or road racing. This summer when everything on the truck is dialed in I'll start looking at racing wheels and see what's out there. I know Big Dave's got the connection on a place that makes custom wheels so I might go that route too. I'm just looking forward to getting rid of my wheels here up the road, I love the look but it's time for a change and one that will net me results in performance.

 

I've had similar thoughts. Would be a shame to give up the SS wheels but they really are detrimental to performance

 

sorry, but if im making near 1000rwp I would not be thinking of giving up my SS wheels. Im actually glad keeping the 20s and not upgrading to 22s for the performance debate. But to heck if I go back to a stock size. I would regear or what I have to, but style and looks does alot for the perception as well. I would not be focused on getting every last ounce out of my DD truck, but to each their own.

Its a easy answer... Make more HP.

 

I know what your saying, but there are other wheels out there that look just as good if not better than SS wheels IMO. SS wheels are so readily available and good looking that is why everybody likes them and are so popular, but there's other stuff out there that looks just as good and hopefully weigh alot less!

 

YEA, I get your point. Im just still very much in love with mine. I think the right size tires is what set them off too. But I agree with them getting too popular. Need to be different at times. Thus both of us having the MATTE black. lol

 

Matte ftw!!!
