they're the CE046 model that DC rims makes:

18x9 +25, so not too bad.

they don't have prices listed on their site, but let me know if you're interested and i can probably get a deal on them.

let me know what they run.

[Korey]

I feelin' it, those wheels are sexy.

[Zach]

HOLY SHIT THOSE WHEELS ARE AWESOMENESSSSSS!11

It looks like you're making radical progress. Is it looking good to have her back up and running?!? OMG I hope so.


How are you getting the car to Nashvegas if she's back running?

feelin to tired and crappy to do anything but.. REPOST!

[CodyW]

for some reason, almost all the wheels on that site are listed as FWD fitment. these are 18x9 +25 though, so they're not bad. also, i'm awaiting a contact for the wheel company so i can send people to for good prices and stuff, i'll post up as soon as i find out.

more pics coming in a few minutes too.

[CodyW]

ok, more fun from the last 2 nights...

last night, matt managed to get the motor put back together with a new used piston that we luckily got last minute from dan at batlground. brady also helped out, and he and clint and i started tearing off vinyl as well.

tonight, the same crew came back over and managed to get everything back in the car (after 2 hours of using the wet vac in our carport as it was comletely flooded, and that was a blast). she started up decently, and with some timing adjustment and a few other last minute fixes tomorrow, we should be ok (hopefully). also put the new rims on and they're pretty sweet. here are pics.











now, off to bed as i have to wake up at 6:30 tomorrow to start doing stuff and then, we should be off to nashvegas sometime in the mid-afternoon.

honestly cody.. i think those wheels look great as is. the color and everything.

the car needs to be lower tho!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1111

[andysapp]

Thas hella rad to hear she's back running again. I agree... those wheels are hawt wit dat finish on'm. There's also somethin way secks about an all black, de-stickered and borderline naked looking car.

[icantdrift]

honestly cody.. i think you should hook erin up with a set of those wheels

the car needs to be lower tho!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1111

how is it running on the quickly revamped motor? everything looking good compression wise?

[matts13]

not sure yet he is going to drive it up here so i can set the timming then we will drive it hard and see how she does and i guess change the oil at the track before the event.

[P.Haire]

the superspeedway doesn't really like it when you change oil there. if you're gonna do it make sure you bring kitty litter just in case.

i'm glad to see you got everything back together.

[Dr. Marlow]

yeah good looking wheels

[CodyW]

just took it for a casual cruise around the block and it seems ok so far. doesn't really want to idle and is still burning off some oil on the exhaust manifold, but did ok when it was actually moving.

my rig will be here soon and then it's off to matt's for a mid day timing adjustment and oil change, and then we should be hitting the road a little later this afternoon.

[Epik]

as it runs and seats the rings it should get smoother idling. timing will be a big help too. good luck in in Nashville

[CodyW]

thanks! i'll let everyone know how it all goes

[shawn shawn]

those rims are hot! and it looks dead sexy de-stickered.
