True. But, no way I would spend >$700 a pop 'hoping' it would work.

I tried other brands that are budget friendly but you dont get to choose offset & I can't use generic 'one size fits all' options that they offer. The alternative brand was close & could possibly work for the front but the matching rears would require narrowing the rear end to get them able to clear the sheet metal w/a disc brake set-up.

I bought a pair of the Rocket Hyper wheels to see if I like them. They clear everything brake wise & offer 1/2" increment options on back-space. The unfortunate thing is they're not old school visually which was what I wanted.

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.
