My Gen 2 with Gen 5 wheels

[HPmopars]

I got my Gen 5 wheels put on yesterday before the snow came today.
I went with the Michelin Pilot Super Sport tires - 285/35ZR18's in front and 345/30ZR/19's in rear.
Can't wait for the weather to clear back up so I can try'em out. I will be selling my Gen 4 polished 5 spokes w/ PS2's I took off.

Lower it and it will look killer.

Can you already buy Gen5 wheels, or are these reproductions?

 

[speedracervr4]

VPA has them on their website.

 

[Speed SG]

You can buy Gen 5 wheels on Viper Parts of America it appears.

 

[Goatman]

That looks awesome!!!! Great choice.

 

[Viper98912]

Awesome. Any fender shots?

I like those wheels. What did they cost?

 

[72hemi]

I was wondering if the Gen V wheels would fit. I heard the front was an issue because of the new offset. Car looks good!

 

[mgeorge]

Looks great! Really matches the lines of the car well.

Nicely done, looks great!!!

Greg, as usual your car looks fantastic. These rims were take-offs from an LE.

Yes, the fronts have a different offset, mostly all to the "outside". The fronts are 10 1/2" wide, that's why I went with the 285's vs the 275's. I have only put about 2 miles on them, but so far no rubbing.

This is all I have right now....

Why do the newer wheels (even the 10 spokes) look so much better on gen II cars than they do on the cars they come on from the factory?
It seems that every gen II car that has this mod just looks spectacular.
Wheels, regardless of what they are, don't seem to have that wow factor on the later cars.
What is so magical about the gen II?

very nice. i would love to see the hyper black ones on a Gen 2

Thanks. The Gen 5's are really close looking to the Gen 4's I took off. The Gen 5 wheels have more of a softer "dish" on the spokes that goes well with the curves of the Gen 2 cars.

I couldn't agree more. I actually prefer Gen 3/4/5 rims on Gen 1/2's over anything that the aftermarket has provided.

Car looks awesome, great color too...

 

[NI-KA]

Looks Good !

Red is Faster

 

[7Sins]

Looks great, even better lowered and wheels powdercoated black/satin black.

What's the plan with the Gen IV wheels? I was looking into a set of them.

 

[v10enomous]

Wow ! They look great. Would love to see a photshop on a silver GTS.

They are for sale. PM sent.

 

[dyc1077]

I would be interested in the set as well

 

[Helo Steve]

They look awesome! Really like the look of those.

 

[fastrs2.5]

Good looking car

 

[Next Phase]

I think the gen 5s look great, but not enough of a difference from the ones you had before to justify the cost IMO. Most folks wouldn't be able to tell, I'd probably miss it and I'm a wheel guy.

 

[FastGuy68]

Looks very nice......super clean too!!
