Sneak preview.....
I went with 20X9 and 20X11 Savini Forged SV8s with brushed face and polished lips. I'm also having them customized with just a little bit of matte black accents. The little windows between the two sets of spokes will be matte black, as well as the rivets. Doing a black center cap with polished surround.
Savini Forged cuts all of their faces in-house. Here's what the raw centers looked like before they went to paint, finishing and assembly. Should have them very soon. I've already purchased new Contisport Contact3 with a 305/25 rear tire to help keep this bad boy planted.
More pics to come.....

Thanks Brian. I hope so. It's so hard when you're doing customization and you're the first person to run a certain wheel on a certain car. There are no pics to go off of, so it's kind of a leap of faith.
These certainly aren't my dream wheel for this car, but my budget was only $4000.00 with tires, so that limited my choices.
Nope. Good catch, I fixed it. 9" front.
