Can I ask what those put you back and do they offer other styles as well?
Lmao!

They are forged multi piece wheels so not the cheapest but surely not the most expensive.

There are several styled, even concaved and mono piece forged. They are made by Rennen

Picked up my Rennen from the guys at FX Auto Design last week. I also waited several weeks (like you), but well worth the wait! I got the gunmetal finish too. BTW, love your wheels!

Looking good Love the finish, they go with the car very well. They look identical to the 360 spec 5 wheels.

Thanks for the inspiration, guys. Just pulled the trigger on some rims last night.

With those wheels your car looks hawt my friend. I would change one thing though, since it has taken a more elegant turn with the new shoes, I would ditch the black grill and go chrome again. Either way, you have a panty dropper there my friend.

As for caliper color, do a burnt orange



Or this green:

Approved!!!!!!


Nice look, as for caliper colors- with the silver car and red tails, Id go with the classic red. And please eliminate the orange sidemarkers.

Damn nice!! My first set was this style, but I can't stand the way 20" wheels ride so back to the 19" for me.

I thought about going back chrome but also considered color match to the wheels and see how that looks. Or maybe gloss black.

Thank you very much. I have clear ones I just have not put them on yet. Thinking of getting rid of the makers all together.
