Nice Wheels
Wife gave the OK for new wheels for X Mas. Finally found one I really liked until I saw saw the price tag $1500 each. Apparently they custom made.

Absolutely Fantastic. Upscale but still a little retro.

Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. I'm bookmarking this as an option for the future.

Those are very similar to Vision Torque wheels which cost about $1500 for the set. That is a very common design. There is a few trucks on this site running the Vision Torques. I'm sure you could find a nearly identical wheel for 1/4 the price. Unless those are custom forged aluminum wheels that is a ridiculous price. $1500 per wheel are show truck prices.

I just dropped over $3k for some Detroit Steels & custom white walls and feel like I got bent over and stuffed like a Thanksgiving turkey. Can't imagine spending $6k unless I just won the lottery.

Thanks for the info, I’ll check those out. $1500 All 4 is more like it, I can do that and then another $1000 or so for tires. $3000 out the door would be great

Go w/Rocket Racing for a similar appearing wheel @ 1/3 of the price listed:

More back-spacing options as well vs most cheaper aluminum wheels (like the Ridler's).

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
