      What effect, if any do the taller front tires have on handling characteristics? Non ACR..

      None at all from a “recreational” driving standpoint.

      My interest would be in a set for the track. I regrettably sold my SWII’s last year. Now looking to replace..

      If you are interested just shoot me a PM. However there is a set of used sidewinders in the classifieds if that’s what you are looking for

      Yes, those sw2’s are still for sale, i continually see them in my garage each time I’m home….and if those sw2’s sell I might just have to buy outnumbered wheels.

      Because I was honestly thinking if my sw2’s sell and these vx1’s are still around…..

      Time may be on your side. My car is leaving for Prefix on Tuesday. So I wouldn’t be able to ship them until it returns.

      Noooo! That car looked perfect.

      Also, you have a 19×11 front

      Shoot! That’s right! That was a typo on my part! And yes, the car looks perfect. However, like a woman with her shoes, my weakness has been wheels. This is my fifth set since I have owned the car.

      Not going to divulge that quite yet. But at the rate I am going, they will be for sale about 3 months after I get them. So stay tuned.

      cash corn?

      I’m WAY off topic here, but that wouldn’t happen to be your field of employment, would it??

      These wheels were purchased through Tony (Nine Ball) 4 months ago. So fit is perfect.
      Satin black
      19×11 fronts and 19×13 rears.
      Toyo 295/30/19 R888R’s in the front, and Toyo 345/30/19 R888’s in the rear.
      One of the front tires got a nail in it and was patched.
      They have been balanced, and the sensors are included.
      All 4 have been ceramic coated.
      They are lighter than Sidewinder II wheels (compared against 19″ rear).
      Tires still have excellent tread remaining.
      Ready to be installed. $4200 shipped. Will deliver within reason.
