As many of you know the process of selecting wheels etc. is for most a very lengthy process (due to the human's decisive limitations regarding shiny things). But I happy to tell you that I finally put my new shoes on this weekend with few other gadgets to round out the package. I want throw a huge thank you out to Mike Golding (The Powder Coater) who took care of the calipers and helped me with an issue on one of the brackets (we'll leave that vendor out of it). Also a TY to Keith at 1st Rate Corvette who handled the TSW purchase and LG who took care of the rotors. All of these guys are absolute pros. Enjoy the pics.

Sweet. Like you, selecting wheels has become a part time employment to include the stress without the pay. TSW Interlaggos are at the top of my list, but wow, I wish they made them in more size options. Glad you finally found your calling. Enjoy

Yep, there seem to be endless trade offs one has to consider when shopping for the right wheel.
