They were $3100 last time I checked. I found them as low as $2800. Depends on size too. I was checking out 18". What size are you planning to get?

I doubt I'll get that good of a price unless I get lucky and find some in stock somewhere.

I've read that an 18x9.5, 28 offset will fit 275/35's. I had previous thought that 22 offset and 265's was as far as you could go without rolling fenders...so I was surprised to hear otherwise.

Gotta be honest, not a fan of the bronze. Nice rims though! 275 is nice :D

I bet online somewhere you could probably get them for a deal off some forum special of a vendor. I've found that's the best way to new-wheel shop. Of course they'll all say "PM for pricing". I bet someone like MVP Motorsports could cut you a good deal.

I ordered the Volks today. Vivid Racing actually had a set on order and I should have them inside a month--of course I don't need them until late March or even April.

The Full-Race manifold came today. The welds are very nice. Think I should wrap them or have them hi-temp coated? I'm not sure how to go with that.

Thats a good looking piece, it would almost be a shame to wrap it.

Wow, that is a beautiful manifold.

I would say don't wrap it, but do get it ceramic coated inside and out. It'll help keep underhood temps down.

Nice. I say do a clear ceramic coating so you can show it off!
