I love the '10 gt500 wheels and wanted them in chrome too, so I got the AM chrome ones in 19x8.5. love the way they look, but I also love the ones you have also. so I got the '13 gt500 style wheels for my winter set up. Why don't you keep the ones you have, swap out the rubber and use them for winter wheels?

Me too. I've always wanted a wheel in that shape. I was seriously considering them until I saw the extra $300 for chrome. I guess that's not bad but it was like a punch in the gut after I thought I found a great wheel for a decent price

Those wheels with a deep impact blue and white seal it for me

I am leaning towards these wheels again, either black or chrome. They look delicious.

After seeing the Black Mamba copies of the old S/S wheels, I no longer desire the Niche wheels anymore. Chrome S/S wheels for me...
