What do you think of the wheels below? Looking to fit a DR in the rear so I can hook.With that said, my 19x9 Ford Racing (Brembo) wheels will be up for sale

I really love both the true forged wheels, but the price is insane. Any other wheel suggestions? Dunno how I feel about FR500's.

I want something simple with a good amount of dish in the rear. I also want to go with the staggered look, preferably 20x10-10.5 in rear and 20x8.5-9.5 in rear. Any issues with people rubbing on lowered cars with a 305-315 nitto/MT in the rear?


All suggestions/ input welcome.

Thanks guys!

Im not a fan of deep dish wheels...although, if I was this would be my choice no doubt:

I don't see how you can beat the silver AMR wheels for the $$$.

Not my car, but...

^those looks good.

Mine are 19" cv3 and I think they work well. Better than the 20" black niche I have

Out of the ones you posted I like the first ones. I like the Welds too if you're doing a big set like 19" or 20"

That's my biggest problem. I don't know how much I want to spend on wheels. I don't see myself paying 3k just for wheels alone. I think being somewhere south of 1500 would be in the budget.

Or do I just keep the stock 19x9 "brembo" wheels and throw on a 305 NT05 R drag radial.

Ok. This is a long shot. You've made it quite clear that you like the deep dish and lip. However, these wheels incorporate the modern Concave craze into the dished wheel theme. They have videos of them on Youtube spinning and they look insane. The wheel is silver but built into a polished dish. It's something to look at at least. They were my next choice. I was 50/50 with the F-14's.

^I can understand that. I am posting from a corner-carving perspective. The AMR's in 18 X 10 weigh in at 24.6 pounds which is excellent in rotating mass and I got mine for less than $99 a wheel. (forum discount) Just don't think you can beat that for the price, unless performance is no concern. BTW, I have a '14 Sterling Gray Track Pack car...

Edit: Joey, my reply was in edit for you before Justin81 posted, We must have posted at the exact same time.

Yes. CV2. Truly a classy looking wheel. Check them out on Youtube they are sick when in motion. I didn't like them at first but I grew to think they're top 3 wheels.

The Weld's of your choices, but I think I would try a DR on the stock 19" first. I actually really like my Brembo/Track pack wheels. They do feel heavy, not sure what these wheels weigh, but I would be looking for something noticeably lighter if I did replace them.

Thats the only DR that would come close to fitting on the track pack wheel. I was afraid to pull the trigger.... not sure if there would be fitment issues. I know Nittos tend to run a bit small, but still thats a bigass tire for a 9 inch wheel.

That's a bad ass tire my friend uses them. I can't see how that tire would work on a 9 inch wheel. I have the same size on my 11 inch wheels.

Also, If you have an itch for some new wheels. You'll have the same itch after you spend a bunch of money on tires for the stock wheels.

Any chance you could post a picture of that 275/XX on the 11" wheel? I'm wondering how bad the stretch is because I am looking for new tires for a 10.5" wheel.
