I am...just retiring from racing...I'm pursuing a change in family status
BTW, my Comps come with 245/45-17 and 275/40-17 Hoosier R3S03s on them with only 2 heat cycles. The wheels are race-only and have 5 track event weekends on them...They were purchased new in Dec '01...

Skateworld,
I received a PM from an insterested buyer.
The SSRs are for sale with 2-heat-cycles on the Hoosier R3S03s which are already mounted on the wheels. My price will include the tires on the wheels. The Hoosiers are 245/45-17 mounted on the 8.5 x 17 and 275/40-17 mounted on the 9.5 x 17. The setup is ideally suited for the track racing enthusiast...
A local buyer is preferred--I don't want to deal with hauling the wheels/tires to UPS for the buyer...Each wheel/tire weighs ~36 lbs; very light for such wide Hoosiers...

Mid 7, those look like polished wheels in your signature. They're nice. What are they?

Do you recognize the Montego car in the backround, Manny?
Edit: Oops, nevermind, I thought you meant the picture he posted rather than the small pic under his forum name.

Max,
Yeah I see your car in the background with black Volk SE37Ks...Now that I look closer, Carcrazy's car just looks stunning with those Volks. Are those silver centers with polished/machined lips? I wonder if they come in 9 x 17s all the way around with 45-mm offsets (hee hee hee)...

mld7, your racing harts don't appear to have bolts on them? they look much better than the close-up shot of the "generic" c2 you posted
either that or your comp screen is 40"...
the only reason they dont look like they have bolts are because the pic is too small to see them...
they are there though..
my personal favorites are the Volk III...
they are discontinued.. ive been trying to get my hands on some for so long now...
