Yeah NO ONE is making money on parts made for LX vehicles built ten years ago! What was I thinking.
And aftermarket wheels aren't more attainable for the newest owners that spend far less on the cars then we did years ago.
I'm sure your cost/risk analysis report is riveting perhaps you could share it with everyone?

Like I said before, organize a group buy if you want the wheels bad enough. People do it with other vendors here, why should this be any different?

then the machine shop has you put up 200$ just for a small design only for you to find out its not going to work..and you cant sell your own prototype to see if it'll make money..? your out 200$ before u even started

The way to go now is with the Msrt wheels! Should have done it before charger srt wheels! They look better than charger srt wheels . Look better on all the cars better than the charger wheels. Look more like option 5s which it seems everyone wants and the Msrt wheels are a limited animal! Just my 2 cents and I know this is a mute point because the car is not being made anymore blah blah blah! Now this is my personal opinion and might be a lot of others opinions also so just adding fuel to the fire! Like mentioned before a mute point at this point in time! I also think the challenger srt wheels although popular are not my cup of tea plus American racing makes a wheel very similar to these and the new wheels from Chrysler are not heart stopping!! just my personal opinion !!!

well since this thread is still hot, has ANYONE come across a simple 5 spoke wheel in a 19 or 20 inch size without bulged (Stock SRT8 and Boss bulb spoked wheels) OR dual spokes (similar to the R/T Daytona 18's i current run) ??? from any company?
just a simple, non engraved or beveled 5 spoke wheel.
I like the CARTHAGE from TSW, but not diggin the rivets...
and would REALLY REALLY want something without a lip due to the crap roads around here.
Ideally, i wanted the RIVAGE
but the bolt pattern only comes in 5x114, then 5x120, no 5x115....
if anyone knows of any wheels out there close to the rivage, please let me know!
Why sit around & watch everyone else live YOUR dream?
Typical Forum Hypocrisy:
Poster A: I noticed better mid-range & better throttle response
Poster B: We need dyno proof, no car we've ever worked on had gains, but we've never done any tests.
Poster A: (provides legit proof from multiple sources) Tests were done on my car & X amount of others. shows gains in midrange.
Poster B: Well i dont accept that it made gains, its just there to look pretty, no car i've put it on made gains, dynos vary 5-20whp per run.
Funny how nothing makes gains, until THEY find a way to sell it to you.

only issue i'm running across is they say 114.3 for the bolt pattern. arent ours 115x5?
i know it may be close, but if i am gonna shell out 500-600$ PER wheel, stuffs gotta be accurate...Last edited by Samoan Tsunami; 05-02-2012 at 12:57 AM.
