If those are multi piece wheels you're batting beyond my ballpark!
haha no reps = replicas, and flow formed = better than cast but not as good as forged

those bolts are fake but don't tell anyone

I'd do these in a heartbeat if I had a Bullitt !!! 20x10 Bullitt Motorsport wheels (wheelreplicas.com)

If I was gonna do a TorqueThrust style in a 20" I would do the Shelby CS-11. It's "light'ish" and the looks would be the least radical departure from OEM.

But the price difference between 20" and 19" tires is over $100/per. Plus, I already have a fairly harsh ride with the dual rate springs so I will take the little smoother 19" tire.

The American Racing is a 20" and just a personal matter but that little railing in-between the spokes bugs me for some reason. It doesn't belong there.
Its a takeoff on the new trend of "aero" wheels. You will see it show up more and more

Bummer about the Variant wheel, Xenon. The sale is a clearance sale and the wheel will be discontinued once supply is gone.

Would you buy a wheel knowing it will no longer be available? If something happened and I needed a new wheel I would basically need four :(

Personally, I like the second set, very similar to my HRE FF11’s but you don’t have to go black. All black wheels are everywhere and it’s hard to see the detailing on the wheel. Here is what the second set would look like in silver with a slight tint.

Those are beautiful!
Yeh, I think I will go satin gunmetal. Variant has a number of finishes they once offered for these wheels but since they're closing out they only have the satin colors left. They have a nice bronze but I'm not that bold...haha. They would look good against black though!

I was looking at 19" wheels solely for the fact that the 20" tires cost so much. But I looked at the 315's in 20" and they were about $80 less than the 305's which was kinda weird.


Whay's your specs??

EDIT: Found this pic online. Pretty close to a black Bullitt. Just the window trim will be different.

The Bronze would look great on black. I ran them on two different dark blue cars and loved them. If they looked good on Grabber Blue I would do it again. These wheels are available in 19’s and 20’s. Mine are 20x10 +35 and 20x11 +50, which is perfect if you don’t want them sticking out at all. They sit perfectly flush.

The exact specs I was looking at! Michelin PS4S in 295/30 F and 315/30 R.

This guy did the bronze and I think it looks fantastic.

The bronze is hot without a doubt. I wish it would look good on Grabber Blue, I would have them re-done in a heartbeat. But I just don’t think it would look good and I’ve never seen anyone else do it; there must be a reason.

and stick with those specs, you will have zero issues with fitment. I even went with 35 series tires to have a better ride and because it filled up a nice chunk of the gap. I am lowering on the Steeda Dual rate, so I hope it has that perfect stance.
