So browsing around, I came across these..apparently they're Saleen (SMS) branded wheels..
but looking at them, they are the EXACT same rims I have on my car...
BOSS MOTORSPORT 328 Chrome rims.

Is it possible it's the exact same, re-branded by saleen?

I've been searching for a bit and can't seem to find the wheels sold individually under the SMS brand..

Is it just me, or is that the exact same wheel??

It looks the same. Here's a couple of pics from the LA Auto Show back in 2010. Notice how the black one has the stock GT wheels though:

Many brands do similar designs that just have such slight details that you can't tell much of a difference. But it's also very possible that they produce the wheel for Saleen. I would imagine SMS could also just offer Boss's wheels in their package considering SMS is technically aftermarket and not OEM.

They do look to be the exact same though. The only thing I see, and it may just be the angle, is that the Boss's have slightly wider spokes?

weird.
It's the angle, my wheels look the same as the saleen's from an angle.

SMS may not be producing their own wheels for that run, or they may not have been ready in time for the show. They could have cut the expense to save money, given that the last company went bankrupt.

Very similar design but not the exact same, look how the lugs area is

Lug area looks the same to me actually.

To me too... As far as my eyes can tell (albeit with low res images on a computer screen), the only difference is the center cap...

Wow, those are very similar! I agree with Zpounds07GT, the Boss rim seems to have a wider spoke. The Saleen spoke looks as though it gets thinner towards the inner part of the wheel, near the lugs.

Heavy wheels.... Erik
