AustinGTP says they are heavy though. If you plan on racing your car, stay away from them. You want light wheels for racing.

You can get the Bullets for everyday driving and keep your torque stars for racing smile

Torque stars are the lightest your gonna get.

I just bought the AFS replica Bullit wheels off ebay yesterday. They are the 17" black ones with the polished lip. Bobby said that they are gonna be lighter then the Ford Bullits so thats what made me want the AFS's. I bought them for $212.50 + $89 in shipping (pratically stole them) so now all I gotta do is get some tires. They are gonna be sweeeet.

If your gonna race those 17s will kill your time. Even if they weigh the same as the torque stars. The 17s have more rotational mass and take longer to spin up.

thats an amazing price!...is this the same set that had the "buy it now" price of $595?...I'm planning on a set of the 18" chrome Bullitts that sell for $695 a set...but if you can bid and get them that much cheaper...wow! jawdrop
