nice wheels

but since they say "foose" on them, they probably cost a bunch

suprisingly they're not too bad... about $350-$400 each. Ive seen the wheel and tire package for around $1800 total.

Those are pretty cool wheels.

They don't make them in any good sizes. I've looked at them before.

They make I think a 17x7 and a 18x7,8

The only thing they make that is a decent size is the Thrusters

yeah thats true. I hadnt even looked into that. I just really like the design

Here's the Website I found with the best price:

discounted wheel wherehouse

I've seen wheels that look similar to these but come in better sizes. Anyone have any suggestions?

nice rims, but like said before the sizes stink. you may could get them custom sized, but i think someone said that was like $300-400 per wheel

ps. foose is the man

the offset is +45 mm for front and rear they only make 9.5 wide the most in the 1pc version which run about 1200 for the set. if you want wider you need 19" and they run 700 a piece. also make em in black spokes chrome lip.

I think those are about the nicest wheels Foose has made. The new version of the Nitrous Thrust look good to have you seen them. I can't remeber what there called but you ought to check them out to. Yeah the size's do suck on the speedster. There more geared to front wheel drive cars.
