I'm really glad that someone started doing the grey. I might have to get a set! Someone here has a blue Magnum with these already.... http://www.lxforums.com/board/showthread.php?t=156809

Think the same factory that is making Factory Repro's is making these? Or do you thing Factory Repro's is supplying these guys?

I think they're the Factory Reproductions rims just distributed / sold under a different name ...

Yeah that's kinda what I figured especially when I saw the "made in china" text on the TireRack/Discount Tire catalogue that I saw these in. That or the factory is two timing on them, which is don't think is unusual for some of those factories.

Factory Repro's are made in china right? I remember billybones (can't remember the exact name) saying that they were but he seemed to have lied about a lot of things when he was a vendor here.

I couldnt agree with you more bro! I just ordered a set of the black w/ machined finish and I am hoping to get the machined part done in black chrome sometime soon. Does anybody know if that it is possible to black chrome just a certain area like that without having to repaint the black part back on?

fyi... The pic above is matte black, with a gloss black face according to calchome's site.

looks like you can do that. on calchrome's web site that is listed as a "level 4" job on the challenger wheels to just do the face. I'm sure their black chrome plate options are extra just like factory reproductions offered us. also notice the wheels on calchromes web site are factory wheels not reproductions because they are a wheel exchange refinishing website and reproductions are much less expensive than factory wheels.

Does the supporting vendor have a higher price than tirerack? I'm wanting 22's for the rear of my Chally but it might drive me crazy that it won't have the SRT logo on it. Guess I'll find out how good some of the machinist I work with are.

I think these would look pretty damn good on my Magnum:

And apparently Gemballa thinks this is a nice looking wheel too:
