Decent aftermarket wheels? July 17, 2007, 04:36:45 PM I don't know why, but I've been thinking about getting some shiny new aftermarket wheels to liven up the look of my 20th. The choices in 4-lug are very limited though, so I usually give up and forget it. Here are the two that recently caught my eye:& They also make the last one in black/aluminum:...seems to me I could repaint the trim to gold to match my color scheme These are all 17x9 4x4 1/4 wheels with the proper backspacing BTW. Any opinions? Quote Selected

Decent aftermarket wheels? Reply #4 – July 18, 2007, 11:37:00 AM The last two are knock offs of the Shelby GT500 wheels. I saw a set on an 89 Mustang at a cruise night last week and they looked killer. It's the first time I've actually been thinking about a *Cobra* style wheel for mine. Quote Selected
Decent aftermarket wheels? Reply #5 – July 18, 2007, 01:03:25 PM They are new and definitely not the "just another Cobra wheel" looking. It's very tempting to get the chrome ones and perhaps find a glossy gold epoxy paint for the areas that are painted black in the second version. Or get the second one and polish the aluminum, then maybe redo the black to gold if I think it would match the 20th scheme better. Hmmm, decisions, decisions... Quote Selected

Decent aftermarket wheels? Reply #10 – July 18, 2007, 06:31:31 PM Too bad the black ones only come in a satin finish. For $139 they are not too bad price-wise... Quote Selected
Decent aftermarket wheels? Reply #11 – July 18, 2007, 07:23:33 PM For some reason I don't like those on anything but the GT500, not even the GT/V6 S197s. I pick the first ones for your Cat. Quote Selected
