Dammit, I've been trying to find a deal on those for along time. Finally got tired and bought some gram light pros. They look nice. I'd prefer a lower offset number so the lip would be larger though.

7racer - I don't think they are "r"s although the lip is about 2 inches deep.

Damian - I've seen plenty and read plenty of your (that) car. One of the best track prepared cars I know of. Your rims were the same as Mr Barber had on his only hooptie before it was stolen IIRC. I love the look of those wheels but after owning some BBS mesh rims and having to deal with the cleaning said never again to mesh rims

And to all - yes those are those cheesy fake bullet holes And even though I am a conservative engineer by nature one has to be nutso every once in a while.
Although.... I have been toying with the idea of removing them.

Oh and thanks for the positive feedback.

Regards,
Crispy

fd3virgin,
My memory is getting pretty bad as I age apologies if I forgot when we met. I haven't been to BnN for quite some time. Maybe when the weather warms up a bit I'll drop by (the yahoos doing stupid things do scare me though. I don't want my car impounded because of some idiot trying to impress the skirts) Refresh my memory when do folks gather at the BnN?
TIA

B&N in Rockville with all the crotch rockets? Long ago (like three years now) I used to show up around 9:30 PM or so and that's when all the folks were out.

Crispy, what happened to Brad Barber's car? Got stolen, or the wheels got stolen?

A few years ago Brad had a beautiful silver FD (He has since bought a yellow track FD which he currently can been seen sporting). He came home from work one day to find it missing from it's covered parking spot. Theft "deterents and mechanisms did nothing - it was stolen by someone who "knew" the car. It was recovered some time later (locally) completely stripped of parts right down to the bare chassis including the lovely Kinesis wheels.
