Prototype SRT-4 rims?

Post by titansxt » Tue Apr 08, 2008 1:29 pm

Were those rims actual rims you could buy or were they some after market companies?

They look just like these, weird.

Good eye! Yes, the prototype wheels on the SRT-4 were made by TSW...the model was the VX1.

I had a set of them on my Omni. I loved those wheels, and I was excited to see Dodge use them on the SRT-4. It never happened of course :roll:
If I could just figure out how to meld the Outback and the Neon into one car...

These wheels look a little less "beefy" than the regular production SRT-4 rims ..... to my eyes. (Which is a good thing, in my opinion)

I wonder if there is any weight advantage with these TSW / VX1 rims.

Unfortunately, they have been discontinued by TSW for a few years now. I do know they didn't weigh much. Definitely did weigh less than the stockers.

Had to get some Kleenex to wipe the drool off my keyboard. Man, what a great candidate for an SRT swap! And the ever elusive leather armrest... :banghead:
