those rims kick ash... how much and where did you get them?

Got them from www.performanceplustire.com
Mounted, balanced filled with Nitrogen and new lugs... exactly $1100 shipped to my door in NY from their place in CA.  Came boxed individually.

Not mad at all...I think others will benefit from me being the guinea pig ;)   They come in other flavors as well.......black centers, polished & full Chrome

Nice pictures, those rims look good! :2thumbs: I just bought a set of the chrome Magnums for my car, otherwise I might think about buying myself a set of those... :scratchchin:

I wonder why they dont offer them in 16"... is that not a popular wheel size?

I love the wheels  :2thumbs: - just don't care for those tires.

Your retro/modern look could be more awesome with modern radial redlines (same size) from diamondback in my humple opinion.  :Twocents: :Twocents:  But I could be the only one.... :shruggy: so go out and enjoy!!

Do these wheels come with black in the spokes ?  I think that would look great .  HOT WHEELS   :drool5: :drool5: :drool5:

I can't stop coming to this thread to look at your Charger with these new wheels.  They really give the old Magnum 500's a run for their money. I hope they're available when I get my Charger finished in the next century, lol.  Again, great choice.   :2thumbs:  Ted
