Default American Racing 427 Wheels

So I was wheel shopping today and saw the AR427's in the catalog. Anyone seen these mounted on and S197. I really like the lip and the classic style. They are only available in 18" size but the backspacing is custom to what ever your application. Not too cheap at $400 a crack but darn they look nice. Anyone have them?

Yes the 340C wheels are pretty darn nice for $600 a set. I wish they had a nice lip on them. I love the Raceline wheels but damn at $500 each that adds up fast.

Any pics of the car with the Raceline wheels? Raceline has a cheaper series than the GT2 which is less expensive but I don't think they fit our cars.

Thanks Caution. Yours is still one of my favorite cars on this forum. The custom stripes and splitter really take it to the next level.

This wheel is really growing on me fast. Much better price over the Racelines. The Racelines are still my #1 though.

Nice wheels, I hate centercaps like that though (looks like they belong on a Dodge Dart).

Those custom racelines are nice. He definitely carries the colors though the entire concept. The motor is red I believe and match the pin stripes. With the gray stripes and red pin stripes flowing though the entire concept is very nice.
