I've always liked those wheels, just wish the were wider.

I agree. I would love a set if they were 17x9.5

It was all over the place at anything above 35mph. The car would start yawing in a snake-like motion everytime I hit uneven pavement.



I drove 200miles at 35mph in the rain with the flashers on to get it back to Boston after Jet7 and I R&Red the motor. When Steve Kan came into town to Dyno the car I had it flat bedded to the dyno shop. I never intended for them to get that bad. I was planning on replacing them over the summer but then the motor died. I didn't want to drop 2 grand on wheels/tires before I got that sorted out.
