Wheels look good. They seem to flow well with the car.

Looks good, nice choice and good to see something different. What's your suspension setup? I like the cars stance.

i think they look sweet bro. I don't know if people have asked this (didn't want to read every response) but have you thought about powder coating them black or flat black and doin the CETA mod? I think it would go good with the black stripes you have but only a personal opinion. Rims look sweet as is!

edit: i should look at all the pics, the CETA mod is done haha

Looks good. I really like the CF5's but really want something with a lip and polished or chrome. Forgestar makes some nice wheels though.

Looks sick! Real similar to the 2011 GT500 SVTPP wheels.
I think if you would have went Satin black with them it would have looked amazing, but still a great choice for the Trans Am

I understand that, but for a "premium" wheel, they are cheap These things were really light for a 18" wheel.

You can get them in a gunmetal or black finish from the factory, I would have gone gunmetal if they wouldn't of had this finish left as it was discontinued in 2010.

I was browsing thier site last night and spotted these... not sure on what kind of $$$ they run though.

I'm not a huge fan of black wheels without a lip, if I didn't get this finish it would have been gunmetal. Thanks though!

The modular F14's look to be about double the price. Same site that I found the regular F14's for $350 each had the ones with a lip for $687 a piece...
