as hard as you want, it isn't the wheels... it's the road conditions. obviously you can't speed over bumps and pot holes.

 

So, do you guys think the Rodders look alright with my car? With the photoshop posted above...do you think they look better than the current 17 inch TTII's? Opinions are great, thanks

 

these are pretty nice...and pretty affordable...at $1995, for 19X8's, shipping included:

 

Wow, what are those?

 

they are made by "Bonspeed" and they are called "Huntington"....pretty bad *** wheel made from billet aluminum too

 

$500 a wheel is/should be a normal rate for any company, little expensive for bonspeed though. they make some nice wheels as well.

 

any way to tell the diff. between Billet and non-billet wheels

 

I love these wheels... American Racing Rebel. I'm either buying these, or a set of polished C6 z06 wheels.

I like the American Racing GT-5's too....but...are they worth $3600.00? Not to me....

nevermind...just realized those are the Rebels..

 

I'd like to see your car with a wheel like that (similiar to Kandideds). I think your car would look 100 times better

 

I think the Rebels will look better on your car than the Z06. BTW, Gorgeous car!

 

 

most billet wheels are two piece or greater. they are lighter, they only come polished or powdercoated as you can't chrome billet directly and they are expensive. some cast wheels are light if they are forged which makes them equally expensive. a 1 piece wheel is typically forged or cast and also comes in either polished or powdercoat but can also come in true chrome. because billet is typically 2 or 3 piece there is more options involved for build style and design as well as offset and build application. they are also easily repairable unlike one piece cast wheels.

you save money with a 1 piece wheel but the quality usually isn't quite as nice, it really depends on the look and feel your going for but it's quite rare to find the right offset/backspacing with a 1 piece wheel that was built to go on many vehicles. a 2 or 3 piece billet wheel can be specially made for anything. the only problem is the billet is softer so it bends easier but if you do bend a rim it's cheaper to fix.
