18" SLP ZR1s... still hoping!

Ultimately, this is what I want to put on my car, if they ever get made. Silver 18" SLP ZR1s with the center section painted a deep metallic gray like pewter. Here's my rendition on Graboid's car. Would be nice to see these made!!

Cost

Believe me, I'd love a set of BC Tuned wheels like CrazyHawaiian's, but they cost twice as much as the ZR1s that are out. And ANYTHING is better than the stockers I'm driving on now. I will probably end up with the silver ZR1s in 17" and paint them myself like this. I'll get the really good stuff further down the road. Baby steps, you know?

all a very good point and it isn't that those wheels aren't nice. the more i've done things the more i've learned it's better to just save up and get exactly what you want but we all know it isn't always possible like that.
