Default Best place to buy new wheels/rims for the Crossfire Limited!?

Okay so I love the stock wheels on the Crossfire Limited, I think they are a perfect fit for the car, but mine suffer from so deep scratches and nicks from a previous owner so Im looking to buy some new ones. Where is a good place to buy from? Either an in store place or a website? Ive had trouble with websites though, the Crossfire wheels are I guess 19" in back and 18" in front and any website I've been on doesn't offer the same wheel in a 19" and an 18" Its either or. Also the some of the prices for the wheels are pretty high, but thats expected. Any info on some good places or websites where I can find the same wheels in an 19" and an 18" would be greatly appreciated.

And quick question, whats the best kit or product to use to get rid of foggy headlights?

Do a Google search for "custom rims pittsburgh" and you'll find a buttload of shops that will fit your car with custom rims. They're all over the place up there.
And if you have an electric drill handy try the 3M Lens Restoration Kit for clear lens. Actually some of the rim shops also do lens restoring and car wraps, and some can also do rim replenishments, where they fill in the gouges and scratches and repaint the rims.

Are you wanting stock size or steping up in width or diameter?
Step, concave or flat?
If so how much?
What size tires are you running now or going to next.
Fronts are easy and lots of options rear in 19 up to 9.5 there are several options, but if you want a 10, 10.5 or a 11 width rear options are limited for a direct bolt on, niche targa and Essex are at a good price but heavy. Other then that custom start at $700 and up.
There are severel options for wider 19's if u have a machine shop redrill your rear hubs to a 114.3, then strong and light rotary forged wheels are a option.
I run 235 on front and 275 on back.
Victoriatire.com has a descent selection.

I am looking for SRT-6 wheels (I have Limited wheels currently on). What place in Florida can help me out with that or website?
Thanks for your help!

Hey elaus...... Google "mobile rim repair". These guys can make your rims look like new. They can repair rash and repaint for a new finish. Expensive depending on how bad your rims are.....but may be cheaper than new. Or.....check with nickwe21. If he finds srt6 rims maybe he'll sell you his limited wheels.

Would these websites have the OEM SRT6 wheels? Cause I can't seem to find them. Lots of nice aftermarket but not the original!

I cracked a front rim few months ago and called the dealer to ask if he could get a replacement. One rim was over $600 so I don't think you want to buy stock rims. For that money you could get a whole set of lighter alloys than what comes stock.

<<<@!1!@>>>

There are many ways to clean foggy headlights. If you have the money to spend, then going to your neighborhood Autozone or Advance Autoparts. If you are more financially conscious, then i would suggest using toothpaste. Here is a quick solution to help you get rid of those foggy lights.
