My new wheels were suppose to be in today. They were American Eagle Alloy 211s. They are a torque thrust II looking wheel. I was really looking forward to the 17" rubber. Now it looks like the supplier, through whom I was getting a Hook up $164/ wheel doesn't have my size in stock and wont for a couple of months. So.... Now I'm going to go with Vintage 45's and the price is RETAIL. (I hate retail).

Should be in next week. So almost $400 extra and I have to wait longer. DAMN DAMN DAMN.

Oh well, I really like the look of the vintage 45s.

I got 2 Halibrand 5-spoke wheels back in '00. I have been trying to get 2 more since then. I keep getting told to "try back in the fall, try back early next year, try back in the summer, ..." . September is the last answer I got. I think I'm going to take out a loan and get some V40's, v45's, or V48's. I can't decide. My car is redneck right now. 2 255/50 dunlop 8k's on 16" 5 spokes, and 1 205/70 and 1 215/60 General may-pop on rusty styled steel wheels. I live in Alabama, so it's acceptible.
