Vendors did run out, last time i checked, and it was about a month ago.. All 19x10's were on back order for 60-90 days and they were charging roughly 900 for a PAIR..So my price is pretty much based off availability and market value..
I had to HUSSLE to get a pair as i bought these by the pair used, not as a set.. and depending on the situation im pretty flexible and reasonable guy
and sbc's in 19x10's for 1800. Mmmmm. Sounds super cheap to me. 18's yes. 19x10's?
But anyway.. THe 240 is sick...im assuming those are Varr's on it....Great drift/street wheels imo..

Being this low and aggressive, how the butt do you guys get away with 'spirited' driving?
I like to take fast corner every now and then ya know?
I should just quit bitchin altogether.
Take the two top bolts from the front fenders,
Roll the fronts some more,
And cut the fender liner to where the headlight is. (As someone suggested)
Finally. Some respect for Varrstoens! 
There is nothing wrong with their wheels as far as i'm concerned.
The only thing I don't like is people lying about their set up.
If you have Varrstoens, power to ya. But there's that one guy every now and then, that changes their center cap and lies about it

After you guys remove the screws on the front bumper liner to the fender. Do you put it back in after you roll the front fender or does it stay in place after being rolled.

Hey guys just a question... i know a 225/40-18 on a 9in rim isnt much of a stretch..but i should be able to just mount this like a normal tire correct? i dont have to do that crazy ish i saw on youtube.. im kind of doiing a tiny stretch/fat tire look..
My front like i said are 225/40 the rims a 9+20 and the rear will be 285/35 on a 10+18... on the rims now are 245/40 and 275/40 with 10mm spacers and rubbed pretty damn bad so i decided to sell the spacers and go smaller with the front tire... and a 15-20mm spacer.. then go with a wider tire in the rear.. i had like a pinky gap between the tire and fender so im hoping the 285 will just barely squeeze in there.. im at -2.8 in the rear and -2 in the front.. not sure exactly how low i am never measured but im tucking tire front and rear.. i know this isnt aggressive at all but i refuse to pull my fenders.. rears are rolled but not going to do a pull

I was the guy working on the silverstone one yesterday. He actually made 465, but they had to back him down to 400 because of the stock motor.
