Well to be honest I don't really see the reason why they won't fit, but I just want to be 10000% sure before I receive them.Or I'll just go and buy them with the VTS and trial fit them on! ________________________________________ VTSbest 60' : 2.272 best 1/8 ET : 9.375 @ 74.42mph best 1/4 ET: 14.603 @ 97.047mph Team Trackday™ |

well I think soBut I don't know the good part number, as there were two different versions. The only thing I know is, that you have to look for this: PS815011 punched into the lip of the wheel  ________________________________________ VTSbest 60' : 2.272 best 1/8 ET : 9.375 @ 74.42mph best 1/4 ET: 14.603 @ 97.047mph Team Trackday™ |
