As the new race car gets closer to coming home more goodies are starting to show up at my door. The latest is a set of Diamond Racing wheels...

16x10....powdercoated silver...will go on under the Sheridan narrow body kit....

Keep in mind that my HRE 3 pc 16x10's are $600 each and I was quoted $800 each for BBS equivalents....

These cost me ~$135 each...

I weighed them against my Aluminum HRE's...they are noticeably heavier and substantially less expen$ive..... (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/laugh.gif)

16x10 HRE's = 19.5 lbs each without tires
16x10 Diamond Avengers = 23lbs without tires

Here's some pics...

hmmm... I just passed up an offer on a set of 8x16 and 10x16 3-piece forged magnesium BBS wheels (very light weight)
The guy was asking €600 for the set, but one of the rims had a minor curb dent (fixable) so I passed (I'm a CSOB (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif))
I'll check if I can get slicks for the 10" wheels (decent street tires are not available in those sizes) and maybe raise my offer (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/rolleyes.gif)
