Buying new wheels, need help finding Roush Alikes

krispyrob · July 16th, 2008, 05:24 PM

So, I just got the news today that I need new rear tires (surprise surprise), so that means I'm on the hunt for wheels. What I really want are something styled just like the the Roush wheels from the Trak Pak mustang.

Diameter: 18, 19, 20
Width: 10 inches rear, 8.5 or 9 in front
Style: 5 Spoke, plain and simple, mat black or Gunmetal
Price: $225 per wheel

My car is Alloy, so I really want a flat black or Gunmetal grey. I'm looking at either 18's, 19's, or 20's, but I really want to have 10 inches on the rear wheels. This makes it quite difficult to find what I'm looking for.

Any of the vendors here are welcome to give me a bid on something they think would work for me.

Thanks in advance guys!

american racing rebels are just like that but idk if they come in gunmetal or flat black

True, but they only come in 8.5 inches wide... and you are correct, they only come in a gloss black or chrome. Also, I don't think I'm a big fan of the lip being different from the rest of the wheel.

its going to be hard to find after market rims that look like roush ones. i was looking for roush rims for a long time and i gave up. but i did get some nice set of rims at ccw

That about the 5 spoke Saleen wheels?

05-08 WHEEL, 20X10, SERIES 335, CHROME 5-4.5 MUSTANG

The aren't black but maybe you could have em painted

look at the enkie ls-5 rim. comes in all black and are around the price you want. comes in 20x8.5,9.5,and 10.

first, I wanna say that I really appreciate all you guys' input.

@ crazytaz, some of those CCW wheels are beautiful... if only I had $2600 to throw into wheels...

I've looked at the Enie IS-5, and they are too busy for me. I really like a wheel that says "Hey, I'm here to get the job done, and look clean too." I've pretty much decided that I'm too picky for the budget I have, but seriously... it can't be that hard to make wheels like the Roush's...

find a wheel you like the size you like for as cheap as you can and get them powder coated the color you want. the konig beyonds are almost a perfect match for the alloy metallic and do come in a 20x10. not sure if the offset is right for those though as i have 18's on mine.
