those work meisters look good actually,

ARD T2 i aim to build a reasonably reliable 11 second street car.
budget really isnt a problem, i would do things over time. IE street port, bolt ons, ext... then one of those turbo kits, bov, ems all that, then mecanical like transmission, plates, ext

you feel like helping me out on what/where to buy theese things?

thanks man

Magnesium is damn good but realistically.

CCW Classic. Noone can say it isnt a great wheel. It's race prove you get it poweder coated with polished lip.

Not to mention custom offsets, custom widths on demand, and I hear the customer service is incredible.

They'll make any rims to whatever specs you want.

So the black ones on the Yellow FD are CCW's. The Machine cut ones on the Red FD are Fikse FM10.
