I think they look pretty darn good!  :clapping:   Pricing is not bad either!  :2thumbs:

I almost bought them, but wanted a different look for my AAR.  They are very nice looking and are a way to get high speed rated rubber on your 'Cuda with the 17".

 Yeah, that's what I thought. I'm not a fan of the other rallye replicas but these look more like the original.  Would like to see a few sets on real cars though.

It's early in the game here, but I'm definitely going in that direction the next time I have to buy tires...If the feedback is good from other's that bought them.

Pricing is competitive.  Don't forget you have to add how much the centercaps & lugnuts cost in addition to the rim.

Wish I bought these on sale, they nailed the 17" look on these.

Anybody know if the 9" back wheels fit without the 1" leafspring offset kits?  The wheels & stance in the picture at the link above looks killer.  Wish these were available when before I bought my current 15" rallyes.

Very few companies still making the 60 series sidewall tires now.

These open up tire options.

I love these wheels. Definitely something I'll be looking at in the future.

If I can't find LH lug nuts to fit my American Racing Daytonas, I'm buying these.

In talking to Yearone, they say no left hand thread lug nuts available for these, and the original lug nuts do not work, so can't use them.

why don't you just change the left ones for right ones? sure would make things alot simpler!

Too expensive and time consuming, and want to keep this first place Mopar Nats winner as "original" as possible.  But it seems Yearone does have the billet 17" "Rallye" wheels that use the original center caps and lug nuts I have, but they are $650 each, ouch!
