True but I would imagine it would add $100/ wheel which will make them a $1200 set of wheels. I may consider this if I could actually see a picture of them mounted on something with 8 lugs but too big a gamble otherwise. From the 1 picture that does exist it looks like the "slots" are much larger on these than the classics and I am thinking what if that makes them look bad.

Also I like Ultra 50/51 wheels about 90% as much as I like slot wheels and a set of 4 is under $500 shipped AND they are available in 16x8 instead of 17X9.
