Surely not as light as aluminum, but much cheaper.

They have 16x7 for the front, and 16x8 for the rear, both in 5 by 135mm.

I think they would look good on my White L.

Any opinions, good or bad?

 

W8 a min, is 16X10 needed for the rear? i forget.

 

Why bother if they aren't any lighter...just my .02

 

Depends, if you are going to run Hoosier Drags in 28x10x16, you'll be fine with 16x8s in the rear. If you plan on running fatter slicks (14.5 inch wide QTPs, etc.) you'll have to go to a 16x10. You get more versatility with a 16x10 rim.

 

Also, 10" slicks sit much flatter on 10" rims, giving you a better tire "footprint" and better hook. I have experimented with this rim size difference on Mustangs.

If you going to buy rims for slicks, you'll be happier with the "hook" of a 10" rim.

 

I tried to order some for my Gen 1 Lightning, but they were on backorder everywhere for over a month....I couldnt wait

 

The rule for rim width is inch for inch, 10 in slick- 10 in rim.

 

Good luck getting them. I ordered 4 and 2 came in while the other two were backordered. The two that came in were both damaged. One had a bent lip and both looked to have been slid around on the concrete on the front face. So I return those 2 and then have 4 on backorder. Another one came in yesterday and it too was damaged. It had a bent lip and all scratched to hell. I called jegs and they said they don't stock them and they are shipped directly from cragar. The boxes were in perfect shape too.
