Just had to replace one on my 23 last call swinger edition. Dealer charged $2005.00 plus tax per wheel. Tire was additional $385 plus mounting balancing and tax and disposal. So basically 4new wheels and tire for swi ger edition are 10k.
Gouging at its finest. Buy the. Black ones and powder coat them all for under 2k
 
$2,005.00 Is the current published retail price for the bare wheel. There are deals if you look around. Still not cheap.

I bought a spare for mine in 2020. The dealership employee price back then was ~800 bucks.

I see they are selling like crazy! So stupid, they might as well list them for 100 grand. Who would even pay that? Same thing with the Challenger prices...I see tons sitting on dealer sites unsold for like 6 months and they are still trying to at or over msrp. Wait it out
 
I just saw this low mile car near me for sale that I would trade for if I wasn't spending more money. The red/black with pop of silver looks awesome!

50th anniversary. That seems like a fairly reasonable price.

So has anyone heard of "Flow Forged" rims? I just learned a lil something today while scouting out some Gold School alternatives. We have talked about the Voxx, which I believe are cast..and then these below...which is cast but then formed into shape? Supposed to be stronger. Look, we all know forged is the ultimate, but those prices are stupid. I am not racing this car so I am seriously looking into alternatives.

Yeah, they came on the scene about 10 years or so ago.
Stronger & lighter than cast, but not nearly as strong as a true forged wheel.
It's a good budget friendly alternative.

Now that I look back in the thread...we did indeed chat about these rims...however I just thought they were forged...I just bought a new black Shakedown and I am sitting here trying to fall in love with it since I am used to the white knuckle. It's just too much black..haha...I am loving the rim style, just unsure if the gold school color would be too much contrast. Might help tie in the the matte silver stripes on the car.

might have to get a lil photo shop work done here

Factory Reproductions makes the flow forged repops in chrome too. Chrome and black always look sharp.
I plan on getting chrome ones for my bare knuckle 50th so I can store to oem gold school.
