RTR 19's wheel: where to buy ?

I'm interrested to buy a set of four 19" RTR mat dark gunmetal, and I'm looking for the nearest dealer near Quebec city, Canada. I n fact I don't mind paying for shipping, but hate to pay additionnal tax and duty when my order pass the canadian border.

Here's a pict of the RTR wheel set I'm looking for:

Probably going to have to go through CDC, who is the distributor of RTR products.

Most of the places sell them for 1200$ (kit of 4), and CJ sells them for 1159$ only....but they are out of stock !

I'm wondering if there's any sellers in Canada ?

Buy the Ford Racing 19 inch wheels. They look almost the same and they fit. JMO ~

I know they look almost the same, but for some reasons....they dont actually !

It must be the color, of the way the center cap is made which are different from the RTR wheels.

I don't like the SVT wheels.....except the 19's on the base Shelby model.

The FRPP wheels are gorgeous, but are much flatter in shape, and MUCH more $$$$

Here are the wheels I'd like to buy. They are 19" at all corner, Shelby GT 500 wheels without SVT PP (On the red one). They look sweet, especially this color....

Meh... FRPP Wheels look pretty nice but the RTRs are really special.

They're similar on paper but they're quite different in appearance. The extra offset of the RTRs makes a surprisngly huge difference.

It's all about personal preference. I have seen the RTR and the FRPP wheels in person and the FRPP wheels are more to my taste and I also thought they fit the wheel well better. I'm not a fan of wheels that come right out to the edge of the fender, I prefer them tucked alittle.

I plan on running a 10" rear in the future. As long as the offset is reasonable, they shouldn't stick out and look funny. The RTR's are 9.5" and are a wide wheel on the car. You definitely notice how far out they sit when looking at a profile of the car.

I'm looking for those 19" wheels too (on the red GT500), but they doesn't seem to be available anywhere.
