i saw 2 sets of the fr500 rims at lowe's motorspeedway few weeks ago when they had their huge car show. and the face of the spokes are cool lookin (nice finish) but the sides of the spokes that lead out to the lip look like a**. look just like the tbird chrome wheels do, looks all beaded up and non-polished out chrome. im not sure what you would call it... and there is so little rim with the fr500 on the face that is.... im not sure you would even see the chrome spinning when they move, except for the lip. no flame intended just loved them till i saw them in person....

maybe this is how they suppose to look but when a rim goes for 350/per retail id expect higher quality? maybe its a new style i dont know about ????

im sure there are different knock off versions, mine has no bubbling at all... though i do agree when spinning not as flashy as most chromies.

these were real ones on couple of the guys in the SVOA at lowe's in charlotte,nc. is the WHOLE rim smooth and look the same as the face. like in between the spokes? cause both of these sets looked really horrible....

These are far better than the chromes... IMO of course. This is the only wheel I would consider putting on my 03.

Edit: that sucked... Pic Below.

I like the silvers...
