I believe I've seen them one other time on a Viper (Warfangs GTS from the VCA). These look damn good on the SRT.

funny, thats me in the passenger seat, thought it looked like i was driving at first. PM me where that picture came from please.

those wheels are custom made magnesium wheels available thru SVS. there are centercaps that belong in there but they were still being made when that pic was taken.

PM sent. They look similar to the Magnesium wheels that GM put on the C5 back in '98 I believe.

I think they look great! I bet they would make one hell of a track wheel.

they look even nicer in person. they get compliments all the time.

SVS has a package with those wheels, replacement tires (non run-flats to save weight) and 2 part rotors with aluminum centers.... drops about 100lb. Easy way to let the SRT take back a significant ammount of the C6 Z06's weight advantage... and in the most appealing area - rotating mass. Honestly, it increases performance in every single arena when you drop rotating weight - imagine 100lb.

Pricing:
SVS Forged Mag 5-Spoke Wheels (18x10 & 19x13) $ 10,300

Thanks Austin for the website-

You're welcome. I agree, that is pricey, but they look so good.

they are custom made to the consumers specs (price may change depending on how exactly you want to alter the specs) out of forged magnesium! expensive, yes, but not so bad - considering the quality, exotic materials, and exclusitivity of a custom made wheel.

Definatly a step up from the HREs and Iforged (when it comes to exceptional bling with a weight savings and flawless finish)- a good option for the finest quality in wheels for your Viper without running what everyone else has! You will definatly have trouble finding another guy with the same wheels.

They look like black chromed copperhead wheels to me. Would be cheaper to buy the copperhead blems from JonB and get them black chromed.

good idea... if your going for that black chromed stock wheel effect

these wheels are not black chromed... the finish is hard to describe, i guess i would say its a semi metallic matte... its not anything like chrome, but its not a flat gray either. it does, however, match the color of black chrome or black nickel, just not that type of reflectivity (if thats a word). SVS can get them for you in different finishes.

not bad at all... only a couple grand more then your standard run of the mill Viper wheels - and you are entering the final stage of quality wheels for street cars (but, these ARE available in centerlock if needed)
