I am only going to use them in the warmer seasons, as I live in New York and pairing those with summer tires is not going to work well in the winter or beginning of spring. I understand the lack of extreme durability, however if I were to go RTR or something high quality I'd end up spending $800 to $1,000 more. That's money I'm just not willing to spend for wheels I'll have on only 2/3 months a year. Had I money to blow, that might be a different story.
The American Muscle RTR style rims are good quality. I do not believe that paying for the extra price of real RTR rims would bring any better quality.
Happy with my AMR's.
(Better color choices and wheel sizing/spacing than RTR's...)

Hey guys, I just wanted your thoughts as I am up in the air on which wheels to get. For the last 2 months of waiting I've wanted the Saleen style wheels in black because they are just simple, yet mean looking in my opinion. However, I recently saw the black and charcoal AMR wheels I also like a lot. Now my whole plans are messed up! Anywho, which wheels do you guys like or do you like neither? I would just like to get some feedback, thanks.

I honestly don't think you can go wrong. The AMR and Saleen wheel both look sick in their own unique way! I actually had Saleen's on my car and ended up getting the Black AMR's. I love the unique drift inspired look it gives you!
As far as quality goes, our wheels are really durable. All of our wheels go threw hundreds of road test, durability, finish etc.. testing before we release them. On top of that we offer a 1 year finish warranty and a lifetime structural warranty just for a little piece of mind!
Best of luck on your decision, let me know if you have any questions!

there is no benefit to swapping wheels from right to left if you can't fully rotate. And most tires are directional so swapping from left to right on a staggered setup wont work! If you think you need to, you might wanna get your alignment checked!

Capt I believe I read somewhere that the front center caps won't fit when using the 9.5 up front. the solution was to take the dust cap off the wheel hub! I am not sure I would just to get dirt and water in there and shortenthe life of the hub bearings.

I will finally be putting on my AMRs Friday or Saturday. The quality is great. I was very skeptical about how cheap they where. And the whole you get what you pay for motto. But in actuality , they could probably sell these wheels for a lot more. But the plus side is there not ripping everyone off like other companies. But I guess the real tests will start once there on the car. I'm not worried since there is a decent warranty.
