YOU NAILED IT! So sick of the black wheels and flipping 22" "rimz" these dudes are throwing on these awesome trucks. They should have 17" "wheels" with a machined or polished finish. Getting my new "space white" "R" next month (finally) and I'll be stealing your idea exactly! Imitation is the most sincere form of flattery as they say.. Seriously perfect dude.

What shop did you use and how much did it cost if you don’t mind telling?
So Cal Super Trucks in San Bernardino insisted on the SVC collars when I asked about the SDI top hats. They quoted me $700 installed and aligned OTD.

I used super trucks too. I spent some time with them asking about the collars vs. springs, never mentioned the SDI hats. His experience was don't do the springs unless I was going to pull and re-valve the shocks. In his opinions, the rebound isn't enough for the springs in stock form. So I went with their recs.


Looks like I was about $650 for the install and alignment.

I love the bronze on the green! Looking for a set of gloss bronze for my Shelter green... very few options out there from what ive seen...

We can do Gloss Bronze, we can also do Brushed Gold. Photos attached of both, let me know what you think!

New lip option I've been working on for the Street Lock Wheels. I have a set in the works and this will be an option once that set is complete. The street lock wheels have a groove lathed out in the lip that shaves a little weight off the wheel but it also creates a spot where water and dirt collect. The new lip option will be flat, no lathed area. This will leave a little extra material but the water will drain out of the holes in the ring. But this will be an "option". You can choose either or, no extra charge.

Groove lip = 27-28lbs depending on the style
Flat lip = 29-30lbs depending on the style. I'll know more once this set of FP3-SL's is done.
The smooth lip wheels are all still under 24lbs. So if lightweight is the goal, smooth lip is still the best option.

Here is a quick rendering and a pic of an existing wheel to show the difference.

Got them new shoes today. TIS 556SB 17x9 +25. Btw, they weigh 29lbs. I weighed them since I couldn’t find it online.

I noticed you purchased TIS 556 rims several years ago. I’m looking at the same ones in +25 offset (accept in the gray with black ring) and would appreciate knowing what you think of them after a few years of ownership. Still like them? Is the finish holding up? Also, I can’t find an answer anywhere on line if the simulated bead lock ring is removable? Just wondering if it could be removed and painted a different color.
Thanks for any feedback you may provide!
