Tires should be here Tuesday and mounted. Then off to FLP to have them narrow the rear axle to make them fit.

You know it!
Also..... why are you going to a narrower wheel?
I know, 15" wide rears from the current 16"ers but that is as wide as Billet Specialties makes the Street Lite. The fronts are my new skinnies and weigh only 9 lbs. each.
Cant wait to see them mounted!:cool:
Me too! I have to get the tires mounted up Tuesday and get them over so they can narrow the rear axle. I should save about 50 lbs by the narrow and going to the lighter rear rims.

Why are the rear axles being narrowed? Are the offsets different?

Yep, about 9.5" less backspacing with the new rims. Talk about getting a rim with a lip!
Ha Ha!

I think they will make nice end-tables to match the blown block coffee table. Why? Are you interested in purchasing a piece of history?

Oh perhaps I might buy them. I could only imagine what I would have to do to make them fit.
