There are currently no 20x8.5 in chrome at the moment, they are waiting on the production to get some in the warehouses. I was there on Tuesday and they showed me their national inventory and it was -18 which means that they were over sold.

Not a problem, it will give me time to find some money to buy tires. thanks for the update.

Re: Boss 338 Wheels **GROUP BUY**
The back tires look so sunken into the wheel well. Would a spacer fix that and bring it to the fender well. It looks great otherwise.

Strut- I'm on my phone and can't tell; are you using a spacer on the rear? If so, how thick?

Thanks,
Austin

Re: Boss 338 Wheels **GROUP BUY**
Hey, I just got an email saying my wheels have been shipped.
Does that mean that the -3-aa 18's are done?

Well I was on the 1st group buy. But, that was before we were told they had not made the 18s yet.

I was wanting my order put on hold until the -3 came out.

That is what I will be getting. Most big tires in that performance range have a tread life in the 200 range. The Continental's have a life in the 500s.
I had some performance tires on my other car that had great traction but only last 4k miles. I will see how long the Continentals last on my other car.
