Little bit of help needed...
I'm preparing for the track run I plan on making March 29th...
So with this, I plan on buying Nitto drag radials..
Now I just need something to put them on...
I need to buy another pair (only 2) of my 17" rims..
I checked Ebay... and didn't see much...
If ANYONE can help me out here, any suggestions, or anything to lend a helping hand, that would be greatly appreciated!!
Also, I checked a few local junk yards, no such luck. Only a few LS's with the 16" wheels.

Product images may differ from actual product appearance.
Smart racers know it takes more than skill to win races. It also takes a tough tire. That's why year after year Goodyear is the first name on the finish line. Fly with the Eagles!

RE: Little bit of help needed...
Our cars already have a differential in them, giving me a great two wheel burnout, unlike a peg leg burnout..
Anyways... Thanks for the info space, but I'm really looking for just the Wheel.. I already have the Nitto Tires picked out, mainly because they need to be for DD as well as track, and nitto really is one of the only companies that make them for a 17" tire..
I don't want to go smaller, because I want the look of stock wheels, with the performance of a street legal drag slick....
