Default Need Some Help with finding some wheels.

Ive tried looking for these wheels and cant find them FS anywhere. They are trafficstar RTS here are a few pics and I know everyone has seen them a million times. I also posted some pics of other wheels on the white SC any one know what they are?

Also if some one knows something better but not more than 3k in price post them up. All opinions are welcome.

If the acleansc wants me to remove pics of his car let me know.

Im still looking for an sc300 but im doing some research. When I get one Its going to be some competion to these cars. lol

Thanks

Mesh still looks best on an SC, but the black SC in the OP is a pretty damn convincing argument for 5 spokes. Minus the door handles that stick out like a sore thumb, it's looking right.

I second that those specs would look SWEET on the SC. Amazing wheels.

Here is my problem. Im pretty sure on the wheels I want but not the car.

At first I wanted a 5spd which I alreadty had. But when I had it I didnt really modify the engine so it really didnt make a differance . So her is my delema. Ive seen several black on black 98-2000 SC300 and have been very interested in them but the only problem is that they are auto and every car ive had(9) since day one was a stick.

What do you think I should do? The car is more for looks

Have any of you whent from a stick to an auto?

Are the newer models harder to modify?

And lastly do you still have to relocate the harness if you want to slam the car like on my old 93?

Thanks to everybody, yous guys been a great help.

Get the newer model, even if it is an auto.

Yes, I had a 93SC300TT 5spd...sold that and kept the V8. You just reach the point when you just want to cruise and relax...of course you can always boost it later

I don't think so.

Yes, it would be wise to do so.
