Wheel Vintique 12 seriers smoothie fit
Sup guys, Im looking at getting some new wheels when my mustang sells, I was wondering if any of you guys have run the Wheel Vintiques 12 Series Smoothie Wheels.
http://www.summitracing.com/parts/wv...5054/overview/ I am slamming my truck sometime in the near future too so I want to make sure they will tuck. Any advise or thoughts would be greatly appreciated

No Tech here, but I was also looking at the series 62 in 17' for my truck. I haven't seen anyone with them installed.

Re: Wheel Vintique 12 seriers smoothie fit
Is that $246 a wheel??? I seen some at hothorhanks.com (hrh) that look really similar to those for less than 100 bucks each...now I'm far from an expert n I mean faaaaar. I don't know much about wheels but what's the difference with those and these

Re: Wheel Vintique 12 seriers smoothie fit
Oh man you're right. I would of never thought there would be such a huge gap in prices from a 15 to 17" wheel.

Re: Wheel Vintique 12 seriers smoothie fit
I really liked the wheel set up on the hales speed shop burgandy/red c10. But I found some cragar delux wheels pretty similar but only thing is the biggest they go is 16 I believe. I found hales speed shop trucks in the suspension threads.

Re: Wheel Vintique 12 seriers smoothie fit
The 16s are reasonable.... I got them with caps from Summit, although I needed 5 due to the spare.
