Speed Star Wheel D5R ??????

What do you all think about these wheels? They are on a closeout and the Bronzish color is what I was going to use as color accents on my car.
You can see them on my car at

Upgrade Garage - Wheel Search

I'd roll with them. How much do the weigh?

I like 'em, very different.

Thanks for pasting the picture, was that just a copy and paste move?
I did not even try, I am not a computer wizz thats for sure.

The specs say
Wheel Offset: +40mm
Lightwieght: 24.7 pounds

Those are cool, i went ahead and ordered the speed stars. I will put a good wet weather tire on these, the dirt will not show as bad with the bronze. Now i need to pick which tire to go with?

BFG KDW new tread, they are a great all weather tire (I love mine)

guzstang · 07-11-2006, 04:29 PM

I've got the 295/35zr18...I wanted to run a 315 or 335 but I couldn't justify it for the extra cash. I'll save my money and buy some dedicated drag wheels/tires.

the wheels will be here tomorrow and it looks like the BFG KDW NT 275/35/18
could be the pick, this size will be 1.6 lower and 1.58 wider than the stock 17 pirelli's and have a good wet weather rating. all i need now is someone in the SA area to give me a deal, any hungry tire salespersons out there??
