John, I see you are using the Isis wiring system. I got the 3 piece kit for my 72 Challenger restomod project. My plan is to install the master cell in the console area, possibly make it visible. Also I plan on installing a Gen3 hemi, 6.1/6.4, how did you interface the engine electronics with the Isis system? Thank you, Ed

Nice wheels! Looked at their website, very expensive though, is that the price people pay?

Any more pics of the wheels - side on etc? What are the measurements. Do they up OK? They look killer  :thumbsup:

Yeah, I'd also like to know are they really as expensive as the website prices??
