Where can I get replica Saleen rims for my 05' Saleen?
Winter is coming and since I use my car as a daily driver, I want to save the real deals for the good weather. I've tried searching on the net but I can't find any Chrome 20x10 replicas in the 05' Saleen style. Anyone know where I could get some?

These rims are of better quality, and LIGHTER than the stock OE Saleen rims.
A few guys over at Stangnet bought some, and said these are way better in looks and chroming than the OE's.

Damnit Jazzer, I had already forgot about my unfortunate curbing incident [8D]
I bought a replica from OE Wheels (advertise in every 5.0 Mustang Magazine). It was $245, and it is ~98% IDENTICAL - and the 2% you would be hard pressed to see
It is chrome and gets two thumbs up in my book. There is absolutely no difference in the chrome finish from the factory Saleen 20's and the one OE on my car. In fact I would guess 8 out 10 people could not point out the replica vs stock on my car.
You might consider a 2nd set of tires too because the more you mount and dismount the more you risk getting your rims scuffed up [:@]

Here is my original post with some pics - this should make you feel good about them. And the new OE Wheels add in 5.0 lists them at $230
