I got the 20's and also really really like those black chrome ones. Either the ten or twentys would work for me.

These are what I have on the car now as I wait for my new Custom Wheels to arrive! As Lou stated, they are absolutely HORRIBLE to maintain, Ceramic Coating or not, they look way to "busy" to me. I'm actually almost embarrassed to be seen driving with these Stock ones on!

Hey Sit - were you talking about MY Black Chrome Wheels & Michelin Pilot Sport 4S Ties? I used Columbus, OH as a Zip Code and was really surprised at what shipping my 4 Wheels and Tires would be to your location. Obviously it may change if your zip code is not 43002. I assume you checked out my link to Classifieds? PM me if you wish to calculate shipping those Black Chrome "Cold Flow - Forged Wheels"

What did you end up getting? Check out ShipNex, they are incredibly cheap and fast. Shipped my stock wheels and tires from TX to OH for less then $300 and they got there in 3 days...paid for ground.

That's actually the site and computation I used to estimate what these Ace Alloy 20" Wheels would cost me to ship to both CA and OH. Youre 100% right too, I calculated only $208 to ship to Ohio, and Im even willing to eat the shipping just to move these awesome, stunning wheels I just cannot use here in my area of operations! I love the look of 20s and Low Profile Tires, but these potholes here are "sinkholes" which is what caused me to remove them, purchase a brand new Wheel & MPS4S Tire to make a perfect set of wheels for sale! Perhaps its just people thinking these are "Chrome" and not a "Black Chrome" finish that matches the front grille of our RCFs. As I've said, whomever find me a buyer for these mint 20s will get $100 via PayPal or something! No nibbles, ok, that's fine. I'll just store em in their pristine state until I decide to use em around here! Sucks no one wants them!.

Just got word my NEW Staggered 19s are en route, so I cant wait to mount them up with these HUGE Bridgestone Pole Position Tires!

The 20 spoke in black with blue brakes looks sweet!

I have these and not my favorite. Way to busy. They are a good strong wheel.

I would like new wheels, yet way to broke to buy the wheel I want and old enough to not settle for less. So the 20 spokes stay for now.

Sure wish mine came Blue from the factory! Right now I'm trying to decide between having them Painted or Wrapped - either way itll be Blue or Red, but leaning toward blue. I replied to your PM too btw. Thinkin you'll be the first to have a matte car wrapped so I look fwd to seeing what you do, and what they tell you to use for Weekly Washes etc.
Car looks awesome man!

Painting will probably hold up better but wrapping is not that bad. I am wrapping my OEM calipers in case I ever take my BBK off.
