    Nothing like a fresh set

    ...of ACR Brass Monkeys for the track.
    Note that these are, in fact, knurled on the inner and outer bead and weight is 26.8# rear and 24.0# front with no TPMS or centercaps.

    I love the way those wheels look on the Viper. Nice job.

    Do those "knurls" help the tire stay on the rim or something?

    I would think that they "might" prevent the tire from rotating under massive load.

    Yes, they prevent the tire from rotating on the wheel under heavy braking loads.

    Are you sure that you don't have the wheel weights mislabeled ?
