Not a fan. Looks like the cheap wheels kids put on 3000GTs. Doesn't fit the TA style, to rectilinear, not enough curve - any curve, to mirror lines on the car. The photos could use some better lighting to show them off a little more too.

Since opinions were solicited, I have to agree with the post above. Not a fan, for several reasons. I don't usually like 6-spoke wheels in the first place (though they often look good on trucks), and the 19" diameter is too large for a 4th gen IMO. I also don't like the all-black-everything look, it's just too muted. It's not a terrible looking wheel or anything, just not ideal in this application IMO.

I see the stock Speedline WS6 wheel in black leaning up against the wall in that last pic. Still not a huge fan of the "total" monochromatic look (nor the flat or low-gloss finish apparently used), but they are a better looking wheel and diameter. 17 or 18 inch is ideal for 4th gens, IMO. 19-20" is just too large.

i dont hate the color, the wheel design i just dont fit it flows with our cars. They design needs to be a bit more concave in my opinion, but if you like them congrats!

Not a fan....maybe in person they look a little better, but thee whole black on black makes it look ghetto'ish. Needs a Gloss titanium or bronze color imo.

I like it too. I've always admired all black cars, perhaps from the Mad Max & Road Warrior days. When Dodge offered the Challenger in a black package a few years back I was really liking the idea. Black is a tough color to keep clean though, plus my wife likes 'color' so two slight negatives worked against that idea. I bought a Go Mango and all is good..

Did you use adapters or redrill for the new bolt pattern? What offset and backspacing did you use? I want to do a square set of 17" TE37's in white but I'm unsure which set to order.
