These are from American Force Muscle (used to be 360 Forged). The color was custom made, based on multiple thin coats of transparent copper powdercoat and a lightly tinted clear final coat. Parts of the wheel are very light copper, other parts are nearly black.
I wanted something different from the usual chrome, or black.

I can't really pinpoint why, but these looks awesome on your grey car!
Maybe its the deep dish and the way the spokes run similar to the stock rims. Are they still 18/19" or 19/20"?

Sorry for the late reply. I was pretty busy yesterday and today (just saw this post). These are 19/20. They do have a nice concaveness to them, especially on the rear wheels. I just liked the design because I am partial to the 5 spoke look, but these are slightly more custom and have enough space between the spokes so they are fairly easy to clean.
Here is another view:

I would go with these if I decide to change out my wheels. Really like the clean look. Most others look too cluttered.
In the mean time I will stick with my starfish wheels.

Same here. My drag setup. When you dont have to spend a ton of money on metamucil and athritis medication, you can afford two sets of wheels.
For the street I prefer the smaller sidewall

You must be new here. There is a whole thread on his conversion.
