Now these wheels are sick

I've been trying to look for new wheels for my True Blue 02 lightning for a while now. A friend of mine recently sent me this picture of a saleen lightning with some really interesting wheels. These wheels look like the 20" lightning replicas but are much deeper. Has anybody ever seen these before or is it just a first for me? I didnt know how to attatch the image so i had to make a gallery to show you th picture. sorry if its kinda small. By the way, this is my first post.

aww that sucks I really wanted those wheels. Does anyone know of any wheels that somewhat look like these. I've seen the lightning wheels the 20s and everything but im looking for more of a deeper wheel. If anyone has any pics, that would be real useful. thanks

yeah i really do too. But if you go to his website and read what he said about them, it seemed to be somewhat of a low quality wheel.

Read the par about the finish and clearcoat. Doesnt sound too appetizing.
