Gee Angus: if your garage is full, you could always leave them in mine. I mean, we're both in the KC metro area. And I would take care of them, I surely would...trust me.:rolleyes:

They look like 9" rims to me. I wish I would have waited for the 9" rims to come out.

How much did the package set you back?

Yes, they are the 17x9's.

I paid $320.00 (shipping is free BTW) for the (2) tires from Discount Tire Direct, (http://www.discounttiredirect.com/direct/home.jsp)
and $360.00 ($325.00 + $35.00 shipping) for the (2) 17x9" Heritage wheels from AFS Wheels. (http://www.afswheels.com/v2/)

They look awful sweet on the car - I'll post pictures later... :COOL:

I forgot to weigh one before installing them on the car.

I'll weigh one this weekend though...
