My buddy is probably going to be getting some black FR500s for his Silver GT, so he'll be selling his Cobra replicas. They're 18x10.5 and 18x9, we put just the rears on my car to see how they'd look and I'm pretty sure I like them.

They're not the chrome ones, and they were thoroughly cleaned 15 minutes before that picture was taken.

Upgrade front and rear brakes/rotors and they'll look pretty sweet.

mineral grey is hard to get right with rims, and cobras arent one of them

Contrary to most, I really like them. I would pick them up if you can get them for a decent price. Not sure what wheels you currently have, but if you have the factory 17" bullitts those are definitely a nice upgrade in my opinion. A wide tire on the back gives a car a mean look and if them are 10.5's in the rear, you will have some meat back there! But, thats just my opinion, do what you think looks good!

polished aluminum or black wheels

min grey is an odd color... hard to match up nice...

I don't like the silver...

They are both rather grey in color... and they just don't match... IMPO

I'd stay away from silver

I think the angle of the picture is poor. The rim looks more like a 19" rim to me.

I think the cobra wheel would look tight on MG, but not in silver. A gunmetal or maybe black chrome IMO would look better.

I've thought about getting some gunmetal saleen rims too, probably the riveted ones like that someone on this site has (I think his name's RFoy80 or something like that). Here's a pic of his car:

Lethal Performance is trying to get them made but it's going to be awhile before and if they become a reality.
