I like the design of those wheels, they look good & match the car well. I'm not really into the bigger diameters, seems like wheels & tires just keep getting bigger regardless, I remember when 15" was big & 50 series was low :? .

A side item, is it me, or does the rear end on that car look unusually high? Fender gap seems much larger than mine, & I don't think it's related to the OD of the tire.

We do 18" as well, the customer wanted 19" for the vehicle. It does look like the rear is raised higher than your vehicle.

They are very nice & as I understand it these rims were custom sized to the exact spec's on the Magusta except being upsized to 19"

correct?

You got it, they were specifically designed to the offsets of the Mangusta.

I cannot tell you how great these wheels are...no vibration at all compared to the anterras. the car is very metallic but light was low in the photo.
it's back in the shop cuz the wind blew a gas grill off the deck of my building and guess what happenned to be parked below :(

we are going to proceed with the 6-speed and supercharger.
Love the rearwheel drive and lack of traction/stability control on these driving cars.....gonna be a mean drift car soon!
Thbose new Pirellis are gonna get abused!

Do you remember what the exact specs were for the wheel (bolt pattern and offsets)? I think they look great. I am looking a either the Niche SPA or TARGA. Did you put a 19x10 or 19x9.5 on the rear?

Lusso Forged & KennethRawlson: So, please, how much for a set of these 19" Lusso wheels complete? I'm running the factory 17s for now but as soon as I need new tires I want to get a new set of 18 wheel from John, or maybe these 19s? Respond here or e-mail direct at ssalemi@earthlink.net - thanks!

Kenneth: Who's doing the 6-Speed and Supercharger? Estimated Costs? Details?
