Tirerack.com I hear is selling them now also. I wouldn't hold your breath with the 6-9 week estimate. Expect longer.

They aren't the lightest... but they do look good

I can give you a good deal either way. Is there a reason you've chosen those sizes. The 57Pro can be had in custom offsets. I typically do a 9" front and 10" rear in my custom fitment. Only downside is possible lead time. I don't believe they come in 0.5" sizes, only whole inches, like 8, 9, or 10.

I be back in the Bay on tuesday. In san diego for an event.

TTY soon,

Rishie

I suppose I would get the same with as Mark.Get 10's in the rear and 9's in the front.I need that size because I get no traction.I am not sure of the offset though.Do you have a number for your shop or a link?What is the wait time?
something like 3 months?
Mark:It looks like we all are running Gram Light 57pros.Sorry dude....I wasnt tryen to bite off you.I decided I was going to get a set before I seen yours.Dont feel so bad.I know how it feels cause Mike bit off of me cause he seen my Datsun wheels and fell in love with them and got the exact same type and color.Bastard Mike!

www.autornd.com

I'm back. The wait time would be 3 months for the standard offsets they offer. I do not use those offsets for a FD, 18x9 +40 and 10 +38. Without fender modication this will rub. I can set this up to run near max fitment. My favorites 255/35 and 285/30/18. I will use higher offsets in our setup. The only downside is that it might take longer. I will inquire with Mackin prior to processing the order. I been waiting more than 90 days for this same setup. I will begin to stock this setup once experiencing this issue.

The shop info is there on the website. You can email me sales@autornd.com. We're located in Milpitas. We're running some pretty big specials for the month of July. Some of which can be seen on the site as packages. Others will have to be told "privately" hehe.

Thanks, Rishie

We have a low price guarantee on these wheels. When I spoke with Mackin again yesterday they told me that my special fitment should be receivable within 90 days this time.

I am going to begin stocking this fitment so that we don't have these issues again for a long waiting period. They have also introduced a new color, like RMC to the wheel lineup. i'm awaiting details.

We will offer them cheaper than RE as part of this low price guarantee, not to mention the custom "fitment". We are direct with Mackin and can be seen on their website for your peace of mind.

Thanks, Rishie
