Got a great deal on a Brand new never used set of DS450 X-package wheels and tires. The tires still have the chicken strips on them.

The set:
Holeshot SR's 21f & 20r
X-package Reinforced Ring Wheels - Powdercoated Black

This should be a huge improvement over my balding stockers, and it gained me a half of inch of width on either side in the rear due to the offset of the wheels being slightly wider.

The rears bolted up no problem, the fronts took just a little bit of sanding on the brake caliper. For some reason the reinforcement on the X-package wheels just barely skim the redge of the caliper.

This almost made me polish the whole things.

After - Polishing the whole thing will probably happen later this week or Caliper paint in gloss black.

PRICE....(thanks again Casey)....was $280, so no question I got a deal.

From the factory the package is $760 supposedly.

From Rocky Mountain,

Holeshot SR 21F - $68.95 ea.
Holeshot SR 20R - $79.95 ea.

That alone would have been $297.80 for tires alone, I definitly would say I got a great deal.

Looks great, can't wait to get my black ITPs.

You looking to get rid of a stock front wheel?

Unfortunately not, I think I'm going to keep the stockers as a back-up set. As with my cars, its always good to have extra wheel/tire sets around.

It's all good, I definitely agree with you. I'm just trying to replace a bent stock.
