I had the wheels road force balanced and the fronts came in at 9lbs and the rears at 15lbs (anything under 25 is considered excellent) which just shows the quality of the wheel / tire combo.

So the shots in the first post are photoshopped I take it? And in that case tsparks are your wheels considered extreme concave or just concave? This is quite confusing to say the least. But wheels still look sick.

So the wheels on your car are 20" ? And the pictures from the first page are 22"?

Somebody photoshopped something, how are they the same car with the owner saying.
The originally posted professional pictures were form my Visit to the manufacturer a couple weeks ago. The wheels are custom and I'm working with them as an Authorized Dealer.
We came up with a special system for the tire pressure sensors and the wheel / tire info is as follows:
Front - Wheels are 20 x 9.5 Tires are 275/40/20
Rear - Wheels are 20 x 11 Tires are 305/35/20

and the dealer saying.
Guys the wheels in the pictures are 22" wheels.

I think this will be one of those "damn the pics show me a video threads".

besides that rim looks just like this one

They're similar and the quality is comparable if not better than 360 Forged and ADV1. I like the center drop of these wheels better and I was able to work with the manufacturer to get the extreme concave to fit on my car.

I used Pedders Supercar coil overs. Thinking of lowering it just a little more too.

Here is a close up of the wheel. If you need a different shot to get what you're looking for, let me know and I'll see what I can do. Hopefully this helps.

how about a close up of the rear wheel at about 45 degrees so we can see the deep concave and the lip clearly

[tsparksred]

Here's a couple shots. As you can see, this is definately an extreme concave. They look even better in person. Hope these help.

Look at the Plates, two different cars, same color. Beautiful wheels

Cool man, got some good angles there. I think I just figured out what they did with these wheels. They look to me like a combination of late IROC wheels and C4 ZR1 wheels...

That's why it's called photoshop.

Take a look at the grille emblem. We're the only ones that make it. It's definately the same car.

Please feel free to PM me with any specific questions you may have.

You guys should believe tsparksred over any other because I did speak with him on the phone last week in regards to his car and a few items they're making and he's the real deal. No photoshop, no B.S. Thanks for the info Terry, wheels look awesome, wish I could afford a set, and look forward to doing business again soon!

Looks Great!

I'm a bit disappointed that the original pics were photoshopped from an actual 20" wheel up to a supposed 22" wheel, for marketing purposes.

1. Scaling the rim up in diameter also scales the rim lip depth up too. It doesn't really look like this. In fact, the 22" lip would likely be the same as the 20" lip depth on these wheels.

2. Scaling the rim up in diameter also scaled the concave depth up too. The wheels in the photoshop will be much deeper looking than the real ones would be.

3. Scaling the rim up in diameter also scaled the brake rotors up in size too. The actual proportion of wheel to rotor gap is then skewed, there would be a bigger gap in reality.

Summary, those photoshop images of the 22s will look much better than reality. I'd hate to have customers disappointed when they get a set of these and find that the pictures posted looked better for some reason.
