Love them, and easy to clean which I think is seldom considered until it's too late where black wheels are concerned. I wonder if they'll fit over the massive front Brembos on the hellcat. Finding wheels is going to be a very long drawn out affair I think.

Join the club on trying to find a 10.5" rim to clear front calipers. As I said in an above post, custom 3 piece is the way to go if you don't mind dropping that kind of coin on wheels

I only need the 10.5s on the rears, which has the smaller 4 piston brembos. The front have those big ass 6 piston ones.

I'm watching and waiting to see what other owners are doing. A lot of them are looking to replace the stock wheels with staggered setups to get more rubber down.

Well some more parts came trickling in this week. Got my end links, bigger rear control arms, SRT black valve stem caps, rear brake pads, and my rims showed up today! Front brake pads should be here tomorrow.

So just dropped my rims off at a buddies detail shop to have them sprayed with ceramic coat. It's a protective coat that acts like a clear coat but harder than clear coat. It might add a very low sheen to the matte finish which I'm okay with. This will not only protect the rims from stone chips and the elements it will make them 100 times easier to clean. Next Saturday I will be lowering it, installing end links, control arms, camber kit and throwing the rims on it. So if anyone is bored next Sat or just looking to drink a beer or 6 stop by I plan on being in garage all day.

Well tomorrow is the day, probably won't start till about 1pm. But hoping by 5-6pm it's lowered, supporting mods are done and rims are on. Might throw a quick coat of wax on her tonight, and knock out the brake pads

Coating came out good bro, added a slight sheen to them. Last night I changed out all the pads and spent a little over 2 hours cleaning and throwing a coat of wax on all 4 calipers. I spent 45 fucking minutes per front caliper cleaning them with simple green. I could not believe how bad they were from brake dust

Ok, guys pics are uploading, I beyond happy with how it came out. Call me conceited or whatever you want but the bitch looks fucking SIK imo. Took me and my buddy about 4.5 hours from start to finish and that was springs, front and rear end links, and rear control arms. Only issue is passenger side front wheel is rubbing on front fascia when I turn. There is about a 1 1/2" difference from passenger side to driver side clearance on front fascia. Open to ideas, only thing we can think of is possible accdent prior to me owning it.
