BMC Alcoa / Super Snake replica wheels
I would greatly appreciate if you could photoshop the chrome wheels (and possibly the black chrome if you have time) to either of these pictures. Pick which one one would be easier/look better. I'm not sure

hmmm I think I like the black chrome, but it may be because of the ambient lighting difference. I should've provided a brighter picture lol
I'm a bit hesitant on the black chrome though, because I've never been a fan of dark wheels. Even the brembo wheels are a bit too dark for me. What do you guys think?

These are the chrome ones, right? These are the actual Alcoa wheels though.
Does anyone have the black chrome ones?

Listen to your elder...CHROME. Your Mustang needs no other exterior mods. No stripes, no scoops, nothing else. It's got the WOW thing written all over it as is.

hahaha how old are you? I'm 28!
Yeah I don't think I would do any other exterior mods to this car except for maybe the GT500 spoiler. That Super Snake does have a bit too much going on. Seems like everyone these days thinks chrome is super gaudy and a joke now. What about just a polished aluminum finish?

I'm 62. That would be "sir" to you!!! As far as polished aluminum, what part of CHROME is it that I didn't make clear?

Seriously, there was a time way back in the 60's that chrome was king and almost a mandatory wheel mod for most muscle cars. It has been over used at times since then and it's rarely seen as much on modern muscle. And because it's not seen as much these days is exactly why it looks so good on a RR Mustang Coupe. Dare to be different.
Certain colors on certain car styles lend themselves nicely to chrome, and as long as the rest of the car isn't over the top tacky with a crap load of bolt-ons, chrome wheels can make the look. I think your car is one of those. Simple, clean and shiny turns heads too. It turned my head even though it's just Photoshopped.
Regarding the Supersnake, that car is meant to be in-your-face....it's show and go.
Hey, whatever you decide is fine. It's your car. Don't let an old f*rt like me sway you, even if I am always right!!!
Good luck and keep us posted.
Yes sir!!
Well...chrome it is!!
If you go to the last page of this thread, there are a lot of pics of the chrome ones on his car. I think they look great.

Now to pull the trigger from a financial standpoint hahaha
I may wait until the winter to get these as I'm on a 90 day probationary term with my new job. If they keep me, I'll likely get these wheels!!

http://www.bmcextremecustoms.net/blmawh.html I've always loved the Alcoa/Super Snake wheels, but they are out of production and extremely expensive used. Has anyone seen these or bought these? I tried searching for them on the forum and didn't see anything.

Did anyone ever go with the BMC's clone of the Alcoa wheels? Any feedback on them? Like, dislike? Are they worth the $?
