Thanks Nine Ball (Tony/DV8Motoring) for the suggestions, ease of doing business and order follow-up. Thanks also to Chuck for installing and the pics, while I'm working on my tan and handicap :)

Hotdiggittydamn..that is fantastic looking. I might have to throw down for a set of those wheels, but I must say my sidewinders look pretty bad too.

I love the the center lock, I mean lust. Very cool..

I sure hope 9ball ball doesn't say that they are available in some type of black chrome...or I'll be sunk.

I'd stick with the satin black on a bumblebee, Capt Van. These new Vipers favor the black wheel, due to all the black accents on the car - and your stripes.

The black wheels look great and I like the centerlock with the anodized red accent. The design, stepped lip, and curvature of the spokes, however, isn't the most attractive but if you like them, thats all that matters. I think a set of black concave 19/20 ADV.1's would look killer also!

Saw them at Caffeine and Carburetors the other day. The car looks fantastic in person. Nice choice in wheels.

Agreed! +1, with you on this one Ron. Those do look really nice though, specially with the center lock, gives the OP a custom set of wheels

Just so you guys know, this GA3 Forgeline wheel is the exact same spoke pattern used on several of the Viper Comp Coupe cars. It is a true racing wheel, and was designed specifically for the Viper.

I run the same wheels on my '06 coupe.

Man, center-locks look fantastic.
Yes they do but the current 1 piece rotors just don't fit with the racing style center-locks. Swapping that iron out with 2 piece StopTech lightweight AeroRotors would complete the look sweet and improve braking performance.

On the list of 'things to do' at Woodhouse in near future...

I love the car's two tone color, and the wheels are fine...to each his own. But now those particular wheels are really showcasing some sub par brakes for a car of that caliber.
