Maybe powdercoated white with OEM hub caps would make them look kind of vintage too! What do you guys think? Thanks
^^ Anyone know the manufacturer of these slots ?



I think it's the current American Racing 17" 8 lug Ansen Sprint wheel. If so, thats a very rare image indeed, since ALL images on the web of ARE's current Ansen Sprint wheels only show 5 lug file photos.

Apparently these wheels are only available in 17x9 wide for 8 lug now, which means you'd need at least an LT275/70R17 tire to fit that 9" wide rim which = about 32" diameter - maybe a bit too large for a stock ride hieght 67-72 C20 without rubbing. What say the masses ?
