Current Events > I'm interested in different wheels for my car, but there's a bit of a catch.

(+) Yeah! (+)

That being, they're replicas of a wheel that a far, far higher and more powerful trim model uses. I generally don't like the idea of up-badging cars, but the gray area is now introduced in the fact that it's just a wheel that looks like it's from a higher trim model, and not a badge outright lying about what the car is. I'm weird like that, and it matters to me. So there.

But the reason I want them is, I just really like 5 spoke rims. Nice, clean, simple. And this particular replica has the right offset and bolt pattern to fit on my car since, well, it's designed for people to mount on and simulate the look of a more aggressive trim model.

This is the replica I'm looking at, minus the SRT badging:


And this is the factory original set right now. I didn't like them at first, but they're growing on me. I'd definitely be keeping them even if I go with the replicas as spares, or for snow tires.


So, I dunno. The actual original equipment wheel has an offset meant for a widebody, so even if I found a set, they'd stick out like crazy and would require a whole new tire, which the replicas address and keep everything flush with the body.

Bump for day CE, but I'm sensing a pattern.

Honestly, I like your factory ones more
