I think it looks a lot better with Silver Frost than it does with that Red. My "rim-less" opinion

thank you so much for your comments guys.. Hella hydro yes svtturbo911 does live here in miami we chill every so often and i love his rims. however he has the c-2 one peice and I want the 3 piece. He is selling his car for 15000 and he offered me the rims and his borla for a smalll price if no one buys it and he is forced to trade it in. Well see how it goes i might just end up with this c-2's but who knows... thanks for you comments so far people.

I like them. They would look even better "real." What size are you considering? They look like 18's or 19's in the pic. For my money, I'd go 17. More subtle, and easier to live with, but that's JMHO.
They look purposeful, aggressive, lightweight (are they?) Hey man, the SVT is no sleeper.

The look ok it may just be the photochop. Tour = sleeper to each his own, some like to "pimp" the ride. The silver one does look good it may just be the color making it look wierd. As for size the contour is a big car 17's wont look right unless your ride on some 225 tires i saw go 18 and slap on some 205's.

Hell yes, but this particular rim is going to cost 1/3rd of what the SVT is worth! Personaly, I would get them because alot of people say nay.

If you are cool with him, ask him if you can play wheel swap for a little while! I fully agree with HellHydro, wheels do make the car!
And yes I can talk, b/c I have wheels. Racing Hart does not stock our crazy bolt pattern, so they would have to be custom drilled. Looking at an extra $100 for a set. If the price is right on the swap, I'd jump all over that!
MDaniel22, its not all the wheel that makes the car though. The suspension plays a MAJOR part in making a 17" wheel look good. IMHO, the 17s on my car with the Koni/Eibach combo look perfect, I'm not just trying to toot my own horn either. If you look a ta pic of Jugs' car, the Koni,Eibach 17" looks perfect too. Yes Antonio's car looks PHAT, rolling on 19"s, but the cost I'm sure is a major factor, it was for me!
IIRC, the Racing Harts on svtturbo911 are 18s. I think the "studio" lighting on the photoshop job is what makes them look off-color. Get them in the sunlight and they will look PHAT!
I like them, but in the end it is your choice cuz its your car!
