Yeah, I'm really getting the itch to finish this thing. My work schedule is crazy right now, and I can only get the weekends to work on it. It makes for a rough week at work when you're dead-tired from the weekend and you never got a chance to rest.

I know what you mean about T-70s.....they are my favorite of all the Torq-Thrust type wheels. The crisp edge on the tops of the spokes and the 200s hex cap gives those wheels a completely different look. Do you know that back when they were introduced, they were a flop? Nobody liked them and they were quickly discontinued. American is reproducing them, but I don't think they make them in 5x5. I went through all of that about a year ago, and every option I looked at was either too expensive, the wrong backspace, or the wrong bolt pattern.
