07 Alloy Gray GT, Foose Ascot rims or Nitrous Chrome

TASSY5 · August 2nd, 2008, 12:46 PM

As above titled. I have a 07 Alloy Gray GT, and am looking for some staggered rims for the car. I have a Full C-300 Cervini's body kit and Polished Whipple HO on the car and a Spyder shaft DS. Foose Ascot rims or Nitrous Chrome are the 2 rims I have narrowed my choices to.
20" X 10" on the Rear and 20" X 8.5" on the front. I really dont race the car but do like a sleeper effect with show quality. With the Alloy Gray I know most like the Gray centers in the rims but I like a little flash to show off the car, That is why Chrome is my direction. Can you guys let me know your opinions of these rims also the proper offset as well as the biggest rear tires and best suited front tires I can run without rubbing or looking goofy.

id go with the nitrous, but i like five spoke wheels so i might be a little biased

The Nitrous wheels are the winner, hands down, IMO.

I like the Ascots. They look Shelby-ish.

I don't really care for either. I think the first rim is kind of ugly and the foose rims are heavvvvvvvvyy. I agree that chrome looks best with that color, but just not those chrome rims.

Nitrous !!! if your not really into racing it, weight isnt a problem.

I haven't really been into racing mine before recently, but one thing i realized the other day is that heavy rims need bigger brakes behind them. Two times this last week i needed to stop and the brakes just weren't there.

That is good info.
I have the Rotor Pro drilled and slotted rotors with their quality pads. But I think you mean bigger calipers.
I did run into a Saleen guy locally that told me he was going to upgrade his brakes because they were not enough for his stock 20's.
