Very nice!

My Arc 8 18x10s (square setup) are here but didn't order my tires in advance. Honestly didn't expect to get them so quickly.

Cool - Will be curious to hear how you find them over the long haul day to day.

I've been eyeing a set of these as well for track use.

Enjoy -

I'm planning on making my Arc 8s as my DD wheels.

I initially intended for them to be strictly track wheels, but I just don't have the room available to store my winters and other set of summer tires.

I wasn't sure about them in the beginning but they look amazing, defly need to lower the car tho
These wheels are light also!
Next time I have them off I'll have weight difference compared to stock 19s with tires

Nice wheels! Would a 305 fit on the rear?

I can attest to the strength of these wheels, at least for the 17x9s. I've hit monster potholes, launched my car over an expansion joint, and driven over many rough patches, ruts, and plain bad roads. The roads here in Korea are awful.

Not a single bend or issue.
