I originally ordered a set of 15" "Ds" , but in Nov 04 , I was told they will not fit with the Wilwood calipers (won't clear-no way no how).

So, I ordered a set of 17" Ds as replacements. The car got here in December 04 w/o wheels. But, of course, finishing it was months away so I wasn't worried.

Then, in March, as we got closer to finishing the car and still no wheels or any idea when they'd be built, Bumpsteer (member) told me that American Racing had just gone back into production on the Ds and other Cobra wheels.

So, rather than have the finished car sit on the dollies 'til summer. I ordered the Kidney Bean from AR. I got these wheels from AR within 3 weeks of the order just as the car was ready to be put on the road.
