I like the look of the black wheel with polished spokes.how about a PS of those on your car.I'm not a black wheel guy either. I think the polished spokes break it up enough though.

Dal and Steve-Oh both have those wheels on their cars (but not in chrome), I think the right car an pull them off but I'm not sure I like them better than Saleens.

sn95s need a five spoke in my opinion. these look good, but your saleens look much better to me. not a fan of the split spoke, it's too busy and ruins the clean lines of the car. everything that comes off the 2010+ is really geometrical, to go with the lines of the car. switch that to an sn which is made entirely of curves and it clashes.

I'm sure you'll be happy with whatever you end up with though.

i do agree with the spoke part but i think the lines on these wheels are smooth and clean like the SN.. but i get what your saying, i think fr500s are too much for the sn cars. i hopefully wanna keep the saleen but i dont know yet

I agree with this 100%. Butttt I think they do look good on your car, which I know contradicts that. Sometimes different lines complement each other, maybe? I like them better than the saleens honestly. But you can't really go wrong either way. I'd get them, the fact that they're not hugely popular makes them even more appealing.

im not huge on the split spokes but i dont know these just popped to me :)

i think i would like them alot if i got them! i may try to save up and get tire combo too. i know some people arent big on chrome on here and im not the type to chrome everything and over do it but IMO the red i have just makes the chrome POP!

none of what I said is a huge deal. but since you hadn't made a decision yet, I decided to unleash my OCD and get really specific. whatever you get will look good, because your car already looks awesome! and I agree with some of the others, chrome or a satin would really make that bright red pop. I hate black wheels, mostly since anyone who actually drives their car can't keep the tires clean enough to make the black wheels look nice.
