Thanks!

I've been missing around with Photoshop and while it's not perfect....it helps me get an idea of how it might look. For example....here's my mock-up with one of the TSW wheels. I used the pic taken just before I took delivery.

Thank you for this! This looks sharp

After spending way too much time looking at wheels....I may have my decision now. (I've still yet to get the clear bra done...not even driving the car much with all the salt on the roads....) I'm liking these KMC District wheels.

Damn! Those are nice too. What’s the warranty on finish?

Good question. According to their site, chrome and painted aluminum finishes for 1 year, PVD finishes, 2 years. Structural, lifetime of original owner.
I put a set of Sport Edition wheels on my Lincoln almost 100,000 miles ago. They're just painted aluminum, but they've held up well. Makes me wonder if they're all made at the same plant in China anyhow...

Tire rack and TSW's web sites will let you see the car with different wheels.

I would bet many are form the same or similar factories. I would not chance no name wheels though as in general there are copies and counterfeits of questionable quality from China, KMC and TSW should both be fine though. Some one the TSWs are flow formed which are typically lighter and stronger.

OmaHahn....thanks! It's just a Photoshop....I didn't realize it was that realistic! lol

I don't know much other than what I see on-line...but so far I like the look. Supposed to be silver with a machined face.

Good info Lostneye. I had heard of the KMC but had no idea of the quality.

Those look awesome Jason. I really like how they fill the wheel well. Much nicer than stock for sure. Now I have to put some meats on mine when This set wears out lol.

Those do look pretty hot. What size rubber did you put on them?

Well, after way too much deliberation...I think I've made my decision on wheels. After washing and the cleaning the factory wheels (20" low gloss machined)...I'm ready to make the jump. I like them better than the "flower" wheels...but not much. I know I am in the minority, but I'm just not into the black wheels.

I'm going to check with a friend's wheel shop first...but I think I'm liking the Voxx MGA. Offset is 1mm different from stock on the 20x8.5

Well...took a trip to the wheel shop today. Staff (who I've known for 30 years or more) suggested against wheels by Voxx. I had a back-up wheel by KMC..and he suggested that the KMC was a better finished, nice wheel. There was a KMC wheel very similar to what I ordered so I could get a look. So...here's a photoshop of what what I ordered on my SHO. I'll update everyone once they come in. 20x8.5.

Now, I have to decide if I want to sell my wheels that have about 2500 miles on them...or fine somewhere to store them. I have no idea what they may be worth used...
