I decided to retire the 14 year old bias plies from daily use and save them for the NCRS circuit.

These are 235/55-17's on 17" wheels. Updates the look with a nod to the past.

Those are available through Year One. The boxes they came in said Year One as well. They also offer a 17x9. As you can see in the pic below, the trim ring is incorporated in the design of the wheel so you don't have to purchase those separately or worry about them coming off. The hubs and lugs nuts are included as well.
