I really like the look of steel wheels such as the Stealth Daytona from US Wheels.

Or the Crager Black D Windows.

I think they would look pretty mean on a 2nd gen but they don't necessarily come in the sizes I would like (17x9.5 w/5x4.75 holes) and they are quite heavy (~40lbs). Does anybody know if someone makes aluminum versions of this style of wheel? I would think there would be a pretty good demand for something like this with better size options and less weight for the pro-touring crowd. On the other hand, you can't argue with the price of the steelies.

I wanted these wheels just to move my car around and for test fit but they dont make the sizes or backspacing I need.

Basset makes a wheel that is half that weight. http://www.bassettwheel.com/dot.html

Only in the 15 inch wheels though.

Can't squeeze much brake behind that but they look even cooler!
