[PICS] New 360 Forged Spec 5ive Wheels...20s!

[AbsolutHank]

Well, I had been happy with the look of my old CCWs, but I thought the car could look better with some proper three piece wheels. Plus, after my third set of raw polished aluminum wheels, you could say I'd had enough

After deciding on 360Forged Spec 5ive's, I spoke to Andy Wheeler (FLATOUT) about ordering a set of wheels/tires for my car in February. Andy is a great guy, and is extremely knowledgeable and enthusiastic about wheels, and more importantly Vipers I could tell it would be a quick, easy experience from the beginning. Andy was always available via phone, email or text - whenever I needed to ask something about the wheels or just a general status update. Alain and Luis at 360 Forged were also easy to reach...I guess you could say I'm just another happy customer

On to the wheels - WOW! This is my first set of brushed aluminum/chrome combination wheels, and I'm simply blown away. The fine, detailed machine work on the centers is nothing short of breathtaking - I've had friends already say they look like jewelry! The offsets and overall fitment is really aggressive, and compliments the Vipair lowering kit well!

Quickly, the specs are as follows: 20x10 with 285/25R20 and 20x12.5 with 345/25R20 Nitto Invo's. The centers and inner barrells are brushed aluminum and clearcoated.

As you could tell, it was getting dark but I wanted to get some quick pictures up. I'll try to have better, detailed pics tomorrow

Looks nice! I parked next to a car with those last summer and they made my stock 17's look so small.

Surprisingly, in person, these wheels don't necessarily look like 20s...I think because they are such small, narrow spokes.

Yeah, those are Shank2117 here on the forum. I spoke to him a few times about them, but ultimately wanted the 20s up front so I had to buy new.

 

[FLATOUT]

Wow Ryan they look great on your car!

My favorite part of your messages from yesterday is that you said you put a 100 miles on the car already with the new shoes on.

It was a pleasure to work with you, and as you know we're thrilled to have a set on your car.

We have a few more members here with sets in production so it's great to see these on the Vipers. Any ways Awesome man we really appreciate the kind words and the car look phenominal!

The wheels look fantastic! I especially like the brushed barrels as well, really completes the look. I can't wait to see a set of their forged concave wheels on a Viper

Might get a set on a Gen II here pretty soon. We are reworking our Gen III IV fitment right now.

andy,

they cant get the concave to fit a gen3/4. the offset isn't aggressive enough.

 

[Shank2117]

i have a set of 19"/20" i have been trying to get rid of forever.

Have you tried posting them in the classifieds? Because I don't see them there.

We are revisting the fitment as we speak.

Ryan, the wheels look awesome. I do have to admit that I saw pictures of the wheels on your car before you posted them. Once again, the looks "AWESOME"!!! Now get the Gen 4 hood and your snake will be complete.

Yeah, I had a line on a cheap one last month, but it kind of fell through. So I got a Henessey VenomAero low profile spoiler instead

Did you see the ones that Pat took?

 

[unreelviper]

yea, I saw them and they do look very nice.

 

[Greg-TT]

W....O....W....

[AbsolutHank]

Looks Damn Good Ryan, that tint looks great with your combo.

Sick Wheels! But why only 12.5 width on the rears?

 

[Nine Ball]

Those look great! Nice job Andy, and good choice AbsolutHank.

Classy wheels they look great with black.

Sick Wheels! But why only 12.5 width on the rears?

I believe the 12.5 fits better with the smaller sidewall tires regardless of the section width of the tire. They help to eliminate that "Stretched" look. I wish I knew this before I ordered my most recent set...

 

[Jersey Jeff]

Looks FANTASTIC - enjoy! Thanks very much for your help while I made my final selections. I have ordered a set of Split 7's from Flatout with hopes of having them around mid May. For anybody out there considering new shoes, I have to say that Andy has responded to my questions and inquiries at all hours. You really could not ask for more in terms of service and sincere desire to get it all right for you. Going to be a great summer.....

Yup...the 12.5" IMO just look better with the 345/25 tires that are available today. 345s look just fine on 19s, but become stretched when they are coupled with the shorter sidewall for a 20" wheel.

That's awesome Jeff...glad I could help you out. You are going to be thrilled with the wheels - the quality is top notch, and as you have already seen, the customer service is unbeatable as well

I'm excited to see another car with the Split Seven's, as we've been drooling over the same Silver Vert for some time now

 

[AbsolutHank]

Sorry guys, but these wheels have turned me into a picture *****...At least I'm keeping them all in the same thread!
