She's done!!! Car looks awesome!!! I had a 5 lug conversion done to fit the wheels. Previously had 4 lug Boyd's but they looked like crap. 5 lug set up looks 10 times better.

Thanks!!! I had reservations myself after I got a set of 4 lugs and they looked like crap. Here's the original thread I posted with the 4 lug wheels.

http://forums.bradbarnett.net/showthread.php?t=49384

Since then I sent those back and placed an order for the 5 lug wheels. To make them fit I had to do a 5 lug conversion. I was afraid the wheels might look to blingy (is that a word ). They do stand out but no more than the chrome Y2k Cobra R's I originally had on the car. Plus with the wheels being pushed out further due to the 5 lug conversion, they look more aggressive. Overall I'm very please with the look and the fitment. My only concern is with the wheels being pushed out further, I may not be able to run the 275/35/18 tire on the rear like I had planned.

Thanks for the compliments!!!

Now the question every one wants to know: How much $$$

Here's the breakdown:

Boyd Coddington Smoothie II's - $1300 (20% off)
Brother's Performance 5 lug conversion kit - $499.99
Install - $650.00

Evolution Performance did the install of the 5 lug conversion kit. They did an awesome job and I would not hesitate to bring my car back to them for more work.
