Default Takeoff wheels

I would really like to upgrade my wheels. I would love to have Shelby or foose style rims, but I also really like the optional GT wheels. I think people call them fanblades? Is there anywhere you know of where I can pick some of those up? Thanks.

Newtakeoff.com had a few sets left last time I was there, but that was a while back.

I will have a set of the polished "bullitts", 18x8.5 in. coming off my car in the real near future. They are also listed as "funnel" spokes. They have about 7000 miles on them from new in Aug, 07. Let me know if you want them. No dings, scratches, etc, bought some Shelby repllicas.

I may be selling my 18" fan blades in the near future. I'm considering GT500's with wider rubber.
