I had wheels all picked out and i tried to buy them, from 2 places, I found they are on back order for god knows how long. So I am back at it, trying to find another wheel for my black beast.

here they are....

Dale Jr. Hustlers, black with stainless polished lips

Venti V56, black with machined lips

Jaagruti J-70, black with stainless polished lips

American Racing Haze, black with machined lips

Helo HE825, black with machined lips

so what do you all think we look best? btw, they are all 18x8 ranging from 40 to 45mm offset.

My vote is for the AR Haze 1st, then the Jaagruti J-70, and the Venti V56 3rd. It all comes down to what YOU really want though! Don't go with the ones everyone else loves & you're not sure about because 3 months from now every time you look at the car you'll think to yourself "I wish I would have got the other ones!"

im in the same position I want TIS 07 in black, but 22s, and they are on back order for an unknown time. It sucks, but Im not going to just settle for something else.

Problem is i dont think they will ever come off backorder, I think they have been discontinued as they are not in the 08 catalog from the company that makes them. SOOOOO..... I think its best I figure it out now and just buy something else. This is the 4th time I have found wheels but the found out either they are to weak for the car weight, poor quality, been changed for the new year, or not available. Im going nuts trying to figure it out. If I was willing to spend stupid money on wheels this would be some much easier cuz I have some Lexani wheels I really like, but I refuse to spend that much on their name.
