Default DriverzInc: New Billet Specialties Pro-Touring Wheels!

Just wanted to let everyone know that Billet Specialties has rolled out a new line Pro-Touring wheels with sizes from 18"-24" and 7"-15" wide! Each wheel features a forged billet aluminum center 360˚ welded to a spun aluminum "Soft Lip" rim for the ultimate in strength and balance. With extra large caliper clearances Pro Touring Series wheels can fit around the stopping power of 6-piston brakes from Brembo, Baer, and Wilwood. The rivets use REAL ARP bolts as opposed to plastic press ins and are available in black or chrome. As an introductory deal, we are offering 10% off the entire series through December 15th! As always we mount and balance, so if you are looking for a wheel and tire package we've got you covered!

Boost

Draft

Patriot

Throttle

After inspecting them more (first in Columbus, and now after SEMA) they are a very well done wheel, and well thought out... everything you would expect from Billet Specialties really. The ARP hardware is actually threaded into the center, and countersunk. The center of the spokes are nicely machined and because of the deep machining, the wheels are light. And the cap is just plain cool. I like the "Patiot" and the "Draft" myself. And of course, you get the superior polish, and finished product that you'd expect from every Billet Specialties wheel....and the kicker of course... predictable build times.

I also like that one. But I can not imagine trying to keep them clean on a street driven car with all of that hardware.
