Congrats Roan and good luck getting to the 10s. Odd that the skinnies fixed it.

I was thinking Pettit but it's PFS you're hooked up with. Is this the one you're talking about? We put one on a customer's car a while back and it's finally going to make it's first passes next week. It certainly looks like a good product.

I have a question, what are those silver pieces that are zip tied in this pic? Are those washers or nuts?, if they are washers where do they go?

Sorry bro! I bought my skinnies from another forum member Rfreeman. He in turn bought them from Dee K. These were from Dee's old Rx7. I'm not sure of the backspacing but they tires are 24 inch rather than the normal 26 inch, it came with those tires.

Read this thread, it has all the info you need and should answer all your questions.

That thread should be a sticky!
