i actually just got off the phone with my salesman and he has a hook up for me on the HRE wheels. retail on the wheels is 2200 for the 22" and 2100 for the 21". i am getting them for 1874(21) for the front and 1922(22) for the rears. so im actually getting about 300 off a wheel. which is a good deal.

I'm still going back and forth on whether to get 18 inch torque thrusts or 18 inch casino wheels from american racing (black for either option) or to just have the stock 18 inch wheels powder coated black. The only way I would stick with the stock wheels, though, is if I can get the wheel widened to 8.5 inches instead of 7.5 - that way I can fit the tires I want on them.

How much does it cost to get wheels widened anyway?

for sure I am getting black... not much of a fan of chrome
Demoda DF1

they look like a 6 bolt but they are a 5... the bolts are under the center piece
idk if I should do 20s or 22s... they are offering 21s through the dealer so 22s aren't that much bigger. I like big wheels but I just dont want it to look ghetto.

These are the wheels I would definitely get if I decide to splurge on aftermarket wheels. Similar styles, but I like these better. Plus, they're light weight. I'd go with a darker than CGM flat finish for the wheel and glossy black for the lip for my CGM SS.

i actually like how that looks. if i can find a company that will make 22" and 21" wheels like the production version 20's, then ill go with them and getthem all black. maybe a polished lip, or all black with the red stripe.
