Default wheels like this?



I know it's just a rc car but does anyone know of any wheels like this? And NOT c6 base rims, there concaved, probably not a real rim perhaps, but i know there should be a design out there like this. I think they look sweet rc car or not.

when i first saw it i thought of the C6 based wheels.. honestly im not sure BUT if that RC car was in real size then they would be 19"s.. i think some 19" chrome c6's from OE would be your best bet

Sweet RC CAR TOO!!! is that yours??

I saw wheels like that with the "concave" effect from DPE or D2forged. Definitely high end and high cost wheels though

I like them. I really want to upgrade mine but there just arent many options out there.. you guys have TT2'd me to death.... How many of you guys are tired of TTs and OEM knockoffs...? i know i am...

OP... if you find a set, post up... surely there are others who feel as I do..

TT2s

I knew adv1 had a wheel just like it but there so damn expensive, oh well ill keep looking around, and anticop that's why I wanted to find a set like that, everything on fbodys is either oem reps, tt2, or drag wheels, I might end up just finding a set of more expensive wheels...


And the rc car is not mine, I think I got it from corvetteforum somewhere while looking at wheels

I know I have seen a members car on here with similar wheel. I believe its a silver T/A as matter of fact. I cannot for the life of me remember the brand of wheels he went with but I'm pretty sure if you check places like WheelsNext or other places normally known for more importish style rims you can find some on the BMW bolt pattern with right backspacing. Its so friggin close on bolting they will bolt right up just like a set of Ruff brand wheels.

Yeah ill keep looking around, i really want something you dont see on every other fbody, Qcon's wheels are sick but they arent wide enough, i dont wanna 600 bucks for wheels then have them shipped off to be widened.

looking around on ADV1's website i found these

http://www.adv1wheels.com/adv1wheels...pce-ADV5-1.php


and these(different style then rc car)

http://www.adv1wheels.com/adv1wheels...pce-ADV7-1.php

i emailed about pricing, hopefully the wont be $7645340

Well sometimes you gotta look at it like this....If you wanna be different you might have to do some things you would rather not mess with. If you find a set of wheels you really really like but the rears only come 8.5" wide yet you can get the set for say $500-600 shipped, then send the rears to get widened 2" to a 10.5" for $200 a piece, your still comming in around $1000 for wheels(which is cheaper than CCW,ADV1,ect...) & you'll have a custom set no one else has to boot.

Just depends on how bad you wanna be different & how bad you want that certain look.
