I love what I have, but the CCWs have always tickled my pickle. I found some replicas for under $600, and I can keep my tires.

I never worry about that. I like what I like. CCW's are nice but I like the SC's better. Just personal preference and I'm probably in the minority. If I had 5 lug axles I would go with something like True Forged or Billet Specialties Like Grover or Raceahollic's are my favorites.

NEVER but i have not seen a replica close enough to them to want to go for it. i really want true forged wheels , fiskes , or ccw but those are all out of my budget lol

Fixed ;)
 
I was torn between those with a gunmetal center and what I bought. I say do it. That way I can buy them if you don't like em.. LOL

Having seen quite a few of the original stern wheels, I've never liked the replicas. Loved the originals, but something was lost in translation when they were duplicated, maybe it's the missing bolts, the color or the offset (because saleen used a wider rear, they didn't have to be dished), regardless as a saleen wheel fan, I just don't like the replicas.

The set on the notch in the pic, will never go out of style.

Even though I have the stern reps I agree the sterns are a killer wheel and they looks the way the face of the rim still curves out at you but maintains a completely flat face and a negative offset look .

personally, i'm digging the sc's on yours. i've always been more in the mindset that these "blocky" foxes usually need a "blocky" wheel, and the mesh-style wheels (with the exception of the occasional fr500's or full on corner-carving racing gt/saleen) should be left to the import guys.

I can't do 4k for a set of wheels that will be chipped scarred and marred. A waist of money if you ask me. But I also have a house 5 cars and two kids with twins on the way. They will never be in my budget. I like them but give me an original set of BBS RS wheels in 17x9/17x10 please!
