Yeah, I always tell my customers that if they like the way they look off the car then on the car they'll look 10x better.

Nice wheels, what suspension setup does your car or the demo demo car with the aerokit 2 (same as your display pic) on it have?

Thanks, is that achieved with lowering springs or adjustable coil overs?

If I could get them polished/bronze I'd be desperate to buy a set for Christmas this year.

Anything is possible, just give us enough notice so we can get going on them ahead of time, in November we normally attend the SEMA show which pushes things off by a week or two, normal lead times from 7-10 days are then bumped to 10-20 days.

Deposit in the amount of $500-600 is normal to get going... Hope to see you this fall...

I did custom wheels for one of my Corvettes last Christmas and it was April before I had them delivered, tires mounted and balanced and on the car. I'm patient enough. I only e mailed the vendor once between the initial order and delivery. I know these things take time, and unfortunately more money . I want bronze for our guards red 996, and I also have bronze wheels on my all black vette. I may even due bronze wheels on my DD truck. I may have to photograph all of them together one day.

interesting look to just chrome the triangular propeller sections against a black background - makes the wheel look very edgy - fresh iteration on style for the uber-classic fuchs

Trust me, When (not if) I get my 996 this will be my first mod once I need a set of tires and all modes of failure are addressed! I have 3 sets of real Fuchs, and will sell two to fund these...

Going back to post #1 and #6, what are the "stock colors"? Unpainted silver or silver with black inserts?
