First Non-Stock SS wheel I like!

I've been looking for a new set of stock SS wheels, but they're hard to find in great condition without curb rash or anything.

I just came across this wheel and feel it's a great alternative for the SS, although I never heard of Vision. Has anyone had experience with wheels from this company?

Check the wheel out for yourself at - Vision 467 Mantis Wheels - Free Shipping on Mantis Rims

I love the sample you posted. A very clean and aggressive look.

They've been around for a while because I had a set of Vision wheels on a 84 Vette back in the 80s. I bought them at Tire Pros.

I had a set similar to those on the Aurora I had before the SS.

I had these:

MSR Style 048 Super Finish Black Trim Wheels 0482-9715 - Free Shipping on Orders Over $99 at Summit Racing

They were the wrong bolt pattern for the HHR, but seriously considered buying a second set in the correct bolt pattern. I LOVE the look of these wheels.

I also found these - S26 | Sendel Wheels

Like that the entire front is mirror chrome, only concern is that since they don't look like they fan out like the stock SS rims they might not clear brembo front calipers...

Those are nice but I think you maybe right about the Brembo calipers not clearing!
