I'm not sure, but they are replicas...haha, like I would ever have the money for "real" ones. Even if I had enough money to spend $4 grand on wheels I wouldn't...I'd go F/I before I dropped that kind of coin on wheels.

These FR500 replicas however...with tires...are only a little over $1k.

I would love to see a pic of them on someone's car though and REALLY love to see them on Windveil Blue...I think they'd look good

If you had $4k to drop on FI, then you had BETTER have $4k to drop on wheels, because you don't get **** for traction with only an 8.5" wide rim and that narrow-*** rubber you can fit on it.. I have 285's now and am looking to switch to 305's..

I understand that...ha, you should try putting 380 whp to the ground in an SRT-4 and see what fun it is! lol.

What I meant was there's no reason to spend that much, unless you have it to blow on looks.

I can find a myriad of 18x10's for MUCH less than $4 grand

I have them in black and absolutely love them. It was a toss up between anthracite and black, but I chose black. Check my gallery or website for pictures.

Yours look good...black on red is nice.

I'm thinking the anthracite on the windveil blue though...I think it will look good. I just wish somebody else had them so I could see! Lol.

I want a wider rim for more traction so the 18x9 would be nice...don't really want to go find any 18x10's right now or pay for the tires.
