Wow! Those rims look so much better in your pictures.
That SPI guy would sell a lot more if he took better pictures for his website.

How much do they weigh? And are they pretty beefy?
Thanks for posting all of those pictures. Made up my mind now (yes!)

They are much lighter than what I thought they would be. It's hard to tell without the tires mounted. They say they are for racing not bashing, but i'm sure they can take some abuse.

You need to use an img hosting website like photobucket or Imageshack, upload your pictures in a sensible resolution ( 800x600 pixels is fine ) and then copy and paste the IMG tags to your post so that full size pictures show up. If you have a lot of pictures though then it's better maybe to paste the IMG tags for the thumbnails which will take the viewer to the full size images when they click on the picture ( thats what I use on my website to save loading times & to avoid having massive pictures which make you have to scroll sideways just to see them all..

OK, next problem. I was test fitting the hinge pins through all theUE A-Arms this morning they went through all of them except one. In one of the upper A-Arms the middle guide seems to be just a hair off. It does not appear bent. Do I run a drill bit through it knowing that hole will be just a little bit larger? If I do that will it weaken the integrity of the arm?

Dont think you have much other option really- it shouldn't weaken it as such.

Good news I contacted the guy I bought it from and he said that he will exchange it for a good one.
