Those look sharp on the black car. Thanks for posting.

Both are awesome looking. From my readings, it seems that the SVR and the '21 and newer had a wider rear hub-to-hub dimension. Hence the different offset.

Man, those Vossen HF-3 in satin bronze look pretty darn nice too.

Of all the bronze ones, the Vossens seem to be the nicest. And they are a brand I have actually heard of

I just found these by Concaver. It's as close to the Work Wheels that I can find. I wish I could see them on a car. Any thoughts?

I like them and think they would look awesome on your car in addition to being easy to keep clean!

That was just prior to the Maelstrom rims being introduced on the SVR.

Ah yeah, they are very nice. White cars can really pull off that bronze look for sure. Same here, don’t really know my wheels generally speaking, but I recognize that name too. The colour is nice for sure, but the design is excellent on those. Wow.

The only other brand I’m a bit familiar with is HRE, but those things are insanely expensive new. A good friend of mine has a set on his V8 Vantage. He picked them up used in excellent condition. They have to be the nicest wheels I’ve seen.

Yeah. Polished metal is known for "ease of maintenance"

These were the other style of rims that were originally exclusive to the SVR and could be had with a pewter shade.

Yes, the HRE's are top$. I got a quote directly from Vossen $4056 shipped. Bronze is a bold choice.

The Concaver site does have some GREAT pictures....and they seem to have no problem keeping their wheels clean

That would be the cost of one wheel for HRE…lol…Basically…

It’s a somewhat bold choice, but I quite like it on the right colour car. White being one of them. Looks good on black cars too.

Even if you don’t go bronze, the design of that wheel is awesome. If they had that same design in other more conventional colours that could be an option for you if you weren’t feeling bold enough for the bronze ;-0

Do they offer that same Vossen design in something other than bronze?

Oh yeah. They offer a couple of choices

Those look so good in your pictures. The black almost disappears, giving it a light and delicate look. The stock photos might not be doing it justice.

Another view in case you really like them. From a distance the black portion of the rim is hardly noticeable with the emphasis being on the silver bands.  And they will fit your car.

Copy that. I see that they have the common +55/+38 offset. And thank you very much for sending all of these great photos and posts.
