17" SEC Racing Wheels

I was wondering if anyone knew where to go those wheels like Basett_Racing has on his 1989 RS. I would really like to get some and was wondering where and how much for that type of wheels.

THanks in advance.

I dont mind opinoins, i just didnt want to ask for them because these wheels and car for that matter are someone elses on the boards and i didnt want to get him flamed. BUt they have some pretty good sized tires. He has 335/35/ZR17 Pliots on them.

well, since you don't mind, I don't like them at all, they remind me off the gta crosslace wheels, but the chrome part just looks way too huge.

what are you talking about??? I meant look at the cross lace wheels, how they're mostly the black part and not chrome, those wheels have more of the chrome part.

Just so you know the Polished area isnt the same spot with the cross lassing. The polished area is infact just because of how deep the wheels are. They arent like cross lasing and then on top of that polished area. The cross lassing would be like the bottom of the cup and the polished area would be the round edges of the cup.

PS: look at the picture agian and think about what i said as you look at it.
