Chrysler Crossfire Wheels.. thoughts?

So the past few weeks after seeing a set in my buddies shop, i started research a little bit into running the rear wheels off the Chrysler Crossfire.
Specs on the wheel are 5x112 , 19x9, ET 22. There was a trade in on a one tonight so i figured i'd test the fitment. they fit really well. Besides the lug holes being a bit too small. And the need for hub centric rings. Just curious, has anyone ran these before? thinking about picking up 2 sets of rears, since they are staggered (18x7.5 et 35 front)





The tires are 255/45/ , plan on running 225/45 ... Couldn't put the car on the ground , they were not bolted up.

Those look pretty nice, the et and width seem about perfect from the top down shot. You'd have to do something about the center caps though.

Looks good. DO IT

i fucking dig it.

and for once, x2 on something about the center caps... even if you pry off the chrysler bit and fill it with bondo or something. that's just too much for even me to be ok with lol

the look is sick though, rock that shit hard

not bad..remind me of the bmw 7 series wheels

Isnt that set staggered diameter?

I'm not a fan. They look to plasticy. I want to know more about the lift.

yea that lift is awesome

Check your Pm's

Was going to call hardcore FAIL based on the title... but... you've won me over.

DO IT. [up]

I was planning on doing that a while back but I dont want to spend 900ish for the four rear wheels. IT is for sure a upgrade for the guys that love rs4 wheels because it some what simlair as it keeps the oem look with a bit of concave. Alos the specs on the wheels are perfect if you want a nice stanced low car. You will have to run 225/35/19 or 215/35/19 and fender roller to fit them nicely.

im digging them man

do it! they are nice.

got some p chopped photos on the way!

Ok so these arent the best quality since i had them emailed to me from a buddies phone. for those of you who wanted to see it on the ground....yep, i think these will work :D

unless he traded it in at the dealer i work at then no

better looking than i thought it would be, i was under the impression that having et 22 up front would have rubbing issues with stock fenders?

I like them, but if you get them paint them to get rid of that plastic-y look, and retrofit some audi center caps on there. Nice looking wheels though.

i think the question i should have asked if that was your exact car in the pictures.

i would sand the wheels down and rattle can them a flat silver. although im not opposed to glossy black on these either

i meant i bought this car from my dealership.

Holy eff. The concave is ridiculous.
Hot.




Let me go change my underwear now.

Clean! But definately gotta get rid of that plastic look.

I was expecting an onslaught of righteous forum slaughter like none other when I opened this thread.

But those are sic. Props for trying something new OP. Yeah, they're a tad plastic-ish but that's nothing a coat of paint can't solve.


Hot.

right?? the more i see them the more i like them. and i hate to say it, but every time i drive past the blue 335i sedan in my complex i love the concave wheels on it. these wheels remind me of those. and they look sick

I thought I was going to hate them...I don't.

........... win.

These = nice.

theyre alright. decent wheels from a shit-tastic car. i thought they ran a staggered setup?

x2

I love em, they so concave!

From the looks of the top-down picture, you're gonna need more camber and serious fender rolling in-order to do this:

It's funny how when someone wants to put BBS reps on their car, everyone gives the OP crap about BBS center caps, and how they're trying to make it look like something its not. Yet, almost everyone on this thread is making recommendations and suggestions about modifying the center caps to "Audi" Why is this, someone explain.
