For those who are interested, I got an email from afs stating that production has begun on 18” terminator replicas and it’s going to be a very small run. I looked on their site and they are on there. Satin and chrome finish. I was originally interested in getting a set but for the chrome finish they want $1800.00!! IMO that’s a little steep. I originally paid $1200.00 for my last set from them. Just figured I’d put this out there for anyone who’s interested in ordering a set.

Good to hear. I believe I paid $1500 for my chrome set a few years ago. He switched suppliers so hopefully the higher price tag means better quality. Still the best looking wheel on these cars

Yeah, the AFS replicas are the best for the Terminator, mainly because Ford did such a great job designing a factory wheel for it. There are other very nicely designed wheels and everyone has their personal preferences, but there's just something special about the factory wheel design. Same thing with the Terminator hoods. Spot on perfect, design-wise.

Thanks for the heads up. I've been thinking of another set of wheels. Not to replace my TF Mach 5's. But since TF closed, I get nervous running these wheels.

I feel I should store them lol.

I looked earlier and couldn’t add to cart either. Really wish they were doing 17s too. Haven’t seen anything on dates for availability

Why 17's? I'm really thinking of selling my BBS wheels and just rocking these.

You can get 17s from LMR or American Muscle.
Son of a bitch haha I'm clearly paying attention. How do those match the OEMs? Was talking to my wife yesterday about my new tires, it would be a perfect time to get 10.5s for the rear...

I never had any pitting issues with my old afs wheels. I’ve actually had two sets and both stayed in perfect condition both chrome too.
