Are those AFS wheels? Did you happen to weigh them? IIRC, my 17x9 AFS Machs were 27~28lbs a piece. Heavy SOBs, haha. They do look great, though.

The two front wheels are OEM Mach 1 wheels. The rear are AFS products, no i didn't weight them. But what i do know for sure is that the front ones are super heavy compare to the rear 10.5 deep dish wheel.

In any case....they look great. Time for a new sig image. Maybe we could even keep this one within the 650x125 specs too.

They look a hell of a lot better than I thought they would! Do they rub in the back in turns or hard launches? I've been wanting to put 10.5s on mine but I don't want any rubbing on hard launches and turns. I'd hate to ruin a pair of 315s due to rubbing.

They do do rub just a bit. Nothing a spacer cant fix, what it rubs is real small so a 1/4 spacer will do just perfect.

It looks good, the tire covers the with of the rim very good. You can see in the last pic that is flush with the wheel.

The problem a lot of us guys face, is that we went with the 10" wide wheels. A 315 is awfully wide on one of those. I'd thought of it myself, but it's certainly going to bulge.
