Default Need opinions on new CCW wheels (19s)






They are a 1 piece forged wheel by CCW.
They can make a 19x10/19x11 combo for an f-body w/ the same dish pictured.
The center caps pictured were only temporary.

Heres a quick photoshop i threw together...


The sizes are what make it so tempting. I cant decide if I like the styling just yet (mainly because I've always pictured a 3 piece wheel on my car). So what do you guys think, yay or nay?

Those wheels look great except for the rice-boy looking centercaps that you already mentioned.

I noticed them there weights also :p :p
Those pics are the first ones to be put on a car, so they arent quite 100% just yet. Perhaps they were just test fitting before they go into production.

I'm going to get some more information tomorrow morning, will report back with details

High Polished.

They start as a 52 LB block of high grade aluminum and end up as a 20 LB wheel

I think I may be going with the split 5 spoke design. Now, tires...hmmm. Too bad theres not a 315/30/19

Alex,
are these new styles available in an 18" size. Also, why don't you photoshop the 5-spoke design and show us what it looks like. What cost will these rims have, I seem to remember $450 per wheel from some other post.

Nope, 18" is not gonna happen for awhile.



hard to photoshop them on, whens there only 1 pic of the wheel thats a good thing though, I could be the first one with them! :p

that cost is about right on, maybe a little higher.
