Mine didn't come with any. I'm going to be using the american muscle tpms sensors and stems with mine...

Speaking of mine. The other two are here. I picked up tires and also got my race wheels and tires today as well...

Now that's a fat tire! What size is that?

Could anybody tell me do the wheels come with valve stems and if not what are you using? I found nice forged stems but they want crazy price, $85 for 4.

No the wheels don't come with valve stems. Aren't you going to use tpms sensors? I bought new OEM ford TPMS sensors for like $100 which of course includes the valve stems (it's all once piece). If not you can also buy the McGard spline drive wheel installation kit I linked earlier in this thread. That was only $60-80 for the whole kit which includes nice valve stems and lug nuts that do in fact fit, as entrenched made us aware of. Don't forget about needing smaller aftermarket lugs that fit.

Howey Industries included the lugs at no charge so all I need are the valve stems. We have a couple of options here at the shop. I'll have to see which look best.

I'm actually surprised at the AM tpms sensors. They look SUPER nice. Mine are like a brushed stainless stem. I never took them out of the boxes and just gave em to the guys who mounted and balanced mine, which took place TODAY!

I know I know. No pics of em on the car yet. Gotta find time to put my suspension on this week. Maybe tomorrow night after the track.

Planning to run 20" forgestars but I'm having trouble deciding on which springs to run. I have seen K's with 20" wheels, but I was wondering if anyone was running H&R SuperSports?

Did I miss the pics of these mounted yet?? Curious what if anything will need to be modified to make those fit on the rear

No modification except lowering the car. I'm on H&R super sports and koni shocks. Make sure you have a panhard to center it. If it's too far to one side, it'll rub.

people running 18x11 in the rear, what offset are yal running?
and any pics of the fitment like a side rear shot? showing the poke?

thanks

I'll try to get one showing teh poke. It's really not much at all past the top fender line of the wheel well. Maybe 10mm.


Here is one of DIGITALSYNAPSE's car. He's got a 20x11 out back with a 305 tire in this pic. Mine looks very similar. My tire pokes a tad more with the 335 but you get the point. It's not much.
