What's the deal with FRPP SVT Wheels?

The FRPP SVT wheels are listed for $209 on BuyFordRacing (maybe they're even cheaper elsewhere). I'm surprised at that price. Didn't they used to be a lot more expensive not too long ago? I'm not complaining, just trying to figure out if this is for real. I'm partial to the ones with the black around the spokes. I assume the rest of the finish is satin aluminum? And, don't you still need a part from FRPP to limit the travel of the steering because of the larger wheel?

Thanks for any info.

If thats the wheel you want and a price you can live with, you better jump on that.FRPP list them at $224.00 each.I've run wider 18's and 20's without adding the recommended steering stops,no problems here.

i just picked up a set of the GT500 wheels in black for $209, not bad considering that Ford Racing had them listed for $299 at one time. You can get them cheaper but you're probably looking at replicas.

The gt500 wheel with black finish are always $224 and the price for $299 are the silver finish. I think you can get the black gt500 finish for like 174 at tousley ford.
