Truth be told, I am replacing the set on my Roadster. I purchased them back in 2004 for my first SSB. Three out of four of them warped. The manufacturer has changed them since 2004 and made them stronger, the spokes are now a little thicker and deeper in the back. I have a set of the newer ones on the Wife's Coupe and there fairing just fine. They look the same from the front, hopefully there won't be any problems with the new ones. Set of four is around $600 from TireRack. They have been very good about standing behind what they sell.

 

Wow, that's a good price!
Are they 18's and 19's?
Did you need spacers?

 

Yes they are all the correct sizes, 18" and 19" as stock for the car.

I have spacers on the rear only, 5mm. Puts them at stock placement.
Fronts site within less than a 1/4" of the stock rims. No need for spacers. IMO

 

thinking of some stripe's/ slashe's , i have seen some car's with them on the front driver fender
any tried any on the fender..... also say a new challenger with them on it.........

 

anyone here seen any

 

I know this is an old thread, but I got these from Tbird a few months backand finally got them on!

 

Thanks for posting the pic shodown99gp. Looks like they turned out well.

 

Got mine installed too but no pics yet.

 

Here's a picture of mine ... got 'em from TBird and I like them a lot ... went on very easily

 

Hey TBird, do you have some slasher stripes to share or to sell???

And if so can you also send them to Finland.... I think it will not cost so much and I will pay for them...

Can you inform me, thx

So, I decided to try something new. I was seriously considering the "hash stripes" where you all put them, but I loved the front fender look that I put on my C5, and was wondering how well it would look on the Xfire.

This is the finished product. I purchased C4 fender stripes from an eBay seller (he sells them 2 sets for $20, in a wide range of colors), and I'm MORE than pleased with the result. The C4 stripes are a tad thinner than the C5 stripes.

My biggest fear is that the stripes would take away the "classy" aspect of the vehicle. I love the sportiness of my car, but I also love how classy it looks.

Overall, I love how they turned out.

I just put these stripes, lettering, and medallions yesterday. I thought I'd drop in a few pictures, see what you all thought. Notice the bow to the Crossfire god.

 

Looks good IMO

 

Very nice....

 

Here is how I did mine
accented with silver pinstripe to match the silver trim

 

Just wondering what colors to properly do my yellow roadster. Almost stuck with black
Opinions?

 

If you have the vanilla interior, why not go with white?

 

Funny: Never thought of that. Maybe white with a thin black border to match up with the interior.
Thks pal.

Not much artist in me, thats why I need the help
