Plenty of clearance for the rotor and caliper..

The wheel also has quite a "3D" look to it..

Anyway, hope these wheels hold up to street / track use.. not sure when I will start running them yet as I am still running the stock wheel w/ Yoko AD-08.. maybe when that set is worn down..

Nope.
Terrible!
You going to have to sell them to me for half price.
;-P
Great purchase!

Where did you get the track number plate?

The wheels look great - particularly the black on white. Hope my gunmetal VF-1's on black look as good. Also great to hear about the clearance.

I definitely will but unfortunately it'll be a few weeks before I can get the car out, and the wheels mounted. In the meantime, gives me time to decide and purchase the rubber for the Forgelines.

Thanks Adam..

I will continue to use my stock wheel w/ Yoko AD-08 for now and graduate to these NT-01 eventually.. so I will still be running the street tires at autoX.. (you would still beat me even if I run NT-01 anyway, but I figured that I'd play fair.. )

Steve, let us know what you decide on the tires. Curious to see what you decide/find in Ontario.

I've got a feeling that you're going to beat me this Sunday. Mostly because I won't be competing since my car isn't running right now. But come May it is so on!
