I wasn't aware that U.S.Mags was now making these knockoffs in bigger/modern sizes (AR only makes the originals in 15s).

Has anyone ever seen the US Mags version in person in the larger sizes?

Pretty cool.  Buick guys probably love them as well.

Interesting, they are doing soft lip and traditional lip rims. I never liked the smooth face of the new vectors. I would gladly trade my new wheels for an old set.

Did you see what they cost? :eek2:

I just checked...one site has them for $960 USD each!!! Ridiculous!

Up to 32 inch diameters.
Okay, I like a larger diameter wheel but thirty two inches ??  Really ?? ::)

I saw them for $725 a piece and thought that was nuts. :down:

Vision Wheel makes a 9-spoke one that's ballpark similar to a Vector.  Those aren't high priced.  
 


-----------------

The best job I've seen at doing big Vectors is this V10 custom Charger.  Get rid of those 3 spoke knock-off caps in the middle and they look really good. 

Of course they probably spent enough money on those 4 wheels to buy a crate Hemi.  It would be way too easy if somebody was making those things at normal prices.

I like those on the truck. Very similar.
