Default looking for deep dish rims

hey guys, i'm in the market for some deep dish rims, i've been able to find 2 sets, but one set is a 18x10 (too wide) and the other set is 300$ a wheel, but they are workable offsets. anyone else have some sites? i've looked at american muscle and cruzinconceptswholesale. i'd like the lip size and stance that silverbullit has but i'd rather have a cobra style spoke. any help is appriciated.

Bob

the cobra R wheel will work. have you check out the saleen it's not deep dish tho? they look good on a GTP, but i think they will look better on the monte tho. gotta lower the car tho to give that nice stance.

i've looked at those rims, the deep dish cobras are only in a 18x10, when you go to a 18x9, you have a lip thats about 1" or less deep... and i can cut the springs later to get that stance... jokes.

i've gone threw that site as i looked threw all your posts, i was going to pm you a few days ago but my account wasnt working properly (well not at all) but now i can finally post and PM!

i seen the omega deep dish rims, but the spokes are hitious, and if i could wrap my head around that aspect they got that fake bolt tuner look on them. i want a nice clean solid looking rim.

ROH use to make a sexy wheel, and apperantly made only a few of these in a 18x8. but there damin need impossible to find.



these are hot and i want them for my WS4, but i dont think i would ever find them

i didnt wanna spend this much, but i found them. i'm gonna have to buy them in the next month or i wont get them for that cheap.
18x8.5 with a 1.75" lip 35mm+ offset 114.3x5 bolt pattern. its funny you wont find any nice rims for montecarlo, but if you search mustang, the results are pretty sweet, of course i've been doing this the whole time. thanks Silverbullit!

So i got what i wanted for the price i wanted to pay, tirerack.com was clearing these out as they are discontinued so i paid $79.00 a piece! shipping is $60.00, and i should get them in by saturday. Though there a little bigger than i wanted @ 19x8.5, guess i'll look a little DONK till i get a lip kit. here's the site image and someone else's image of the same rim same offset +45 but silver, i'll be getting these refinished just like a montecarlo rim with the machined face.
