I would say these wheels and tires are a big improvement over the old tires and wheels. The service from Team III and Kraus Racing (Brandon Kraus) was GREAT!!! I can't say enough about how good they were to deal with. Well worth the money. I faxed the order to Team III on May 25th and recieved my wheels with tires mounted and balanced by Kraus on June 8th. Brandon actually drove over to Team III (13 minutes away) and picked up my wheels to save me on shipping to his store.
