There are loads of wheel selling websites to get inspiration from. Discounttire.com has lots of name brand wheels.

Similar in looks. Can't find them online. Don't remember the name. Who is John? I can't afford real CCW's anyway. I want something with a similar look though.


Haha John is the owner, he's a real cool guy...If you talk to him he'll give you good discount if you're apart of certain forums. My uncle got a set of C12's for $2,500 shipped when he had his FC. I have yet to see any wheel that looks like any wheel from CCW though. Just save up and get the good stuff.

I'm not spending more on wheels than I did on the car lol. There are a lot of quality rims out there for way less money.

True, but then again it's, "Custom Complete Wheel," so it really helps when you're going for a certain look or are having troubles looking for a certain spec you wanna run.

I think those wheels will look good on your saab, but my friend had some drag brand wheels and they were so soft and bent up all the way around the lip and even warped the rim on all 4 of them, and he knows how to drive well. He just said it was the usual small bumps in the road that did it over a period of 6-7 months. Just be careful, sometimes when you save money right now, it costs you more in the long run.

I haven't heard of them having any issues before. I did my research on them first and everyone said they were good quality and light too. We will see how they go I guess. I will have them on monday.

I finally got the rims in today and got them on, yay. A little bit of wheel gap but not as much as I expected. Took some pics at work before it got dark. Going to take some nice pics tomorrow.
The tire. Triangle Talon 215-45-17. The rim. Drag DR19.

They are made by NTB. They are our "house" brand high performance tire, similar to the Nitto Neogen's except for the speed rating and they cost about $18 less per tire. They cost retail customers around $70 a tire, but my cost is about $50 a tire.

Until you can lower it you should def keep some bodies in the trunk.
