Anyone have any expierience with this company or have thier wheels? Janell and I are thinking of ordering a set of the Gloss black SRT 8 300 wheels for Maggie, and a set of Matt black Viper wheels for the Chally, just wondering if thier is a local dealer for these or do I need to order them direct ? any info is much appreciated

My last set I got from them off eBay. I had them for about a year until my accident. I never had any problems with them and they were a great price

PM Sent with more info
You can get them pretty much anywhere, discount tires is where Richard got his and where my replacement wheel came from. Let Ken, I believe Chris Brown got his factory reproductions from ebay. Greg also can supply them and his prices are competitive with discount and ebay. What I've heard from people is that unlike the actual srt8 wheels, the factory reproductions are not forged and that they are a little heavier, but on the flip side you can get the factory reproductions in 22s and in different finishes.
I hope this helps.

PM Sent with more info I believe Chris Brown got his factory reproductions from ebay. nope, mine are OEM rims, just had them chromed plated. The factory reproductions dont have SRT engraved in them like the OEM rims. Great price for a set though. I know Ben, Stephen and Doug m with the white/blue IE 392 Challenger have the vipers. They all seem to like them and they look great. IMO, looks no different then OEM.

I got deals on my rims from FR because I got a partial sponsorship, but I believe Doug got a pretty sweet deal from Discount Tire down here in Lehi.

I think ive had mine the longest so as far as finish durability goes A+ and that's even through winter when I didn't have a spare set of tires for my 18's and mine are the 22" vipers in matte black. im very very happy with them and still one of the biggest compliments I get from people all the time is on how good they look and how well they fit the style of my car!

Be careful ordering them from different places. Discount tire does not carry Factory Reproductions, they carry OEM wheels. Totally different company, and totally different quality.
We (Zygote Customs) can get the Factory Rep wheels and save you some money compared to Ebay.
I just wanted to set this straight since a lot of people ask me to match Discounts price...its not the same brand.
I also do not carry the other brand, only Factory reps as far as replica wheels.

Its also worth saying that when you ask Discount if they carry factory reproductions they will say Yes, because it sounds literal. Make sure and specify the brand you want.
