billet specialty wheels... mounted!
so we got the 2 front tires and we got one MT drag radial and today we got those mounted up. we were given notice that the second drag radial was backordered for 5 weeks. yes, you read that right. FIVE weeks! LOL
anyways, it's just as well that the last tire is backordered because we unpacked the other rear wheel tonight only to find that it was used. it had already been mounted on a tire machine, had scratches all on the inside of the rim, had stick on weights already attached, and already had a stem in it. so we are returning that wheel this week. in order to arrange for the return of the wheel, we called jegs tonight and we were informed that the wheels were now also on backorder. LMAO
but in the grand scheme of things, its all ok since john got his 4 banger running and my mustang is being taken off the road again to get the rear axles, rear end, and posi done.
in the meantime, this is how she looks as a tripod. lol
