I was just checking those out. They looks good...and $260 per wheel isn't
bad. I need to find out for sure if I need a 5.5 or a 6.5 back spacing.

I'll ask someone over at MF who has those wheels and a SRA.
I just want to be positive that they'll fit before I spend a grand on
the wheels/tires.

I was told the same thing by my bank when I had ~$450 taken from my account. The transactions were used as CC and they were used in the town I worked in, but at places I had never been too. When the bank finished the investigation they told me the same thing that the detective told you.

I still use 'pay at the pump', because to be honest, up until now, I hadn't heard anything outside of what they told me. I thought it was BS..LOL

That was so cool it bought back memories. I ordered a brand new 85 L69 5 speed IROC and waited for 5 months for it. It was one of my favorite cars.
