If I was picking a wheel for an SVT, I would
try to find something that blends a bit of a
European style (understated, smooth) with the
American look (bold spokes, aggressive, with
some classic lines) ... sort of like the car
itself! A lot of the Japanese wheels wouldn't
look as coherent/tight on an SVT (IMHO), even
if they'd look killer on other cars...

Those are definitely not as bad as some of
the Enkei wheels I've seen though... but too
many lug holes for my taste. Take a look at
the Mille Miglia Action (bright silver) and
Action Sport (satin anthracite), they have a
very similar shape, but IMHO have a cleaner
shape through the spoke... and only four lug
holes, as Jebus intended!

IMHO now that the OZ Vela and OZ Superleggera
fit our cars... that's more the direction I'd
go. I've also been told by Gary at Ronal USA
that the four-lug RT wheel will fit our cars!
