Default Re: Opinions about retro aftermarket rims?

Nice rims ... they look a little like the road wheels on the 1955 Mercedes Gullwing.

The problem is that modern sporting cars need a greater offset than the classic wheel designs (more room for the brakes) which in this case means the faces need to curve out (not in).

I think the D-type replicas at the Split Rims site might work

And after seeing M1XFIRE's photo of the 57 Corvette with Cragar SS rims, I think the Foose Nitrous wheels might work
