well, i havent bought the fronts yet. these were meant to be a "track only" pair and they kind of grew on me. I just dont know how I like them for a full set.

Mightymouse: what wheels are those?

Oh.. well, if they're track-only wheels, who cares what they look like?

That was the whole theory: to start with.

But now I might want to go with ZR1's in the front for full time use as well.

If I choose a different rim style, these will go back in the garage for track only use like the originally intended purpose, lol.
