    Agree with Ron. Overall quality from Vengeance is top notch.

Ultimately you would likely return to the Sidewinders anyway!

    P.S., I told you Torrie was the man......and doing it with 91 octane!
    Ron, is your 19" SW front conversion done? May be I should do that too . Pics please if done.

    I was actually talked out of doing that by a wise soul here on the forum. As you know, I wasn't a fan of the really small looking 18" up front. However, looking back at all my pics, along with the pics of other cars, going with the 19" up front really takes away from the natural rake stance of the Viper. Having the lowering caps up front helps, and putting the Toyo R888's helps even more. So I have decided to leave well enough alone. I will either sell the two rears that I have, or I will put drag radials on them for the track.

    Great additions to an already well built car. Let's hear some WOT pulls. Any desire to see what your 60-130 times are?

    Car looks great, and I agree with Ron that the 18" front is the natural fit for this car. Always looks so good in photos with a proper sized tire on there, whereas the 19" looks a bit strange struggling to get a rubber band tire on there. I say stick with the 18/19 setup. I also agree that finding a better looking wheel than the SWII is tough. However, the Forgeline GTD1 is terrific, and I see that BC Forged had a great looking Viper wheel recently.

    Soon. Didn't really think about knowing what the 60-130 times would be, but you have me interested now. Will look into that.

    I think you guys have a point here. I will stick to the 18/19 config. There are a couple HRE's I like too. However, with the spacers coming in tomorrow, and not having the tucked in look, I may be good with the SWIIs.

    Spacers look great... will have to do this now. How did the rears end up looking?

    Rears are perfect. The fronts seem like they could come out some more, but I'm not going to mess with it anymore.
