    24 bolt wheel weigth

    I put a set on my 2000 H1 Wagon, replacing the stock aluminum wheels. You can definitely feel the difference in weight (unsprung). A bit slower going up hills, takes longer to build up speed, coolness factor? Undeniable!

    m1009 replacement floor pan question

    If you buy the floor pans, just cut out the areas you need to replace from the new panels...unless you have no floor. Use magnets to hold it in position until you tack weld it in place. And yes , they do take some tweaking to fit. Nothing that a body hammer, dolly, and a pair of pliers can't fix.
