New wheels...well, sort of
I traded a buddy my non-brembo fitting new wheels for his brembo fitting slightly used hyper silver T3s in 18x8...looks like I will be cycling through 3 sets of wheels now
They just barely clear the Brembos <wipes sweat from brow>

Your a member in good standing.
I now have 5 sets of wheels (some with tires some w/o). And I know I'm not anywhere close to top dog.

I have cut down on my collection of wheels.
Including what is on cars I only have about 15 sets of wheels I think.

Almost 1/2 of mine are miata wheels/tires so space and cost is not as much as you would think.

You know you guys might be right. After having to buy a new wheel storage place to hold all my wheels in I might have a few too many.Sabre wrote:Still..... 15?!?!?!?ElZorro wrote:So instead of it being $Texas its $Arkansas?moxnix wrote:Almost 1/2 of mine are miata wheels/tires so space and cost is not as much as you would think.
The wheel storage space came with a few other things attached but I am not exactly sure what to do with them all yet.

Still like my goldies the best but these are pretty nice for my "Late summer through fall" wheels.
