I like a "20 myself, but the GT 500 wheels do look nice.

They're nice but look too much like stock brembos in design.

Also I think chrome wheels will really be an eye catcher on the blue and white car when shined up, sitting in the lineup. The first pic is my current wheels, followed by the ones i'd like, and then a pic of the American Muscle wheel, all chrome. 19x8.5 and 19x10 staggered set. I'd always try to get genuine FR wheels but have not seen them in chrome, only machined. what y'all think?

I can see why you would be sick of your current wheels! I can imagine those would be impossible to clean and keep clean. They do look great though!

However, I completely agree that a Chrome 5 split spoke set up will really pop on the Deep Impact Blue and White scheme you have going on! We've had great success with all of our wheels and take a lot if pride in building them. We put them through structural testing, finish testing, road testing and much more before we even think about mass producing them! After they're built and ready to ship, we still offer a lifetime Structural warranty and 1-year finish warranty, just to insure that you have no issues.

I hope this helps! Definitely let me know if you have any questions or need some assistance. Don't forget to shoot me a PM to get access to the TMS exclusive 6% discount, to save you a few bucks!

I really like the chrome or polished alum wheels on your car. It will really make those side stripes pop. The Alcoa super snake wheels are for sale. I can't remember where I saw them though.

We're selling our 2013 GT500 wheels. PM if you're interested.

Seems people are interested but they want me to give them away. Half price plus a free set of tires isn't good enough. Go figure.
