Those look really sharp

 

Those AR's look a hell of a lot like de-clads.

Or even more, like the older design of Centerline Stingrays. Have these in 20" on my wife's SS, they are really, really lightweight.

my only concern is their offset is only available in 12mm, not sure if that would look right.

 

Put some tire shine on those wheels

 

LOL...that's the "brand new tires just installed" pic, there's still bead lube on the sidewalls in that one.

For some reason though I've never been much a fan of tire shine.

I hate tire shine lol. Mechanics hate it even more when you have to work on cars with it.

Turns into brown walls if water washes it away and then still slings it up the side of the car.

 

I like the look of those American racing slot, and yes they do look like the decladds. Anyone with knowledge of how the 12 offset would look thought?

 

I like tire shine on a clean vehicle, it makes it look good. But I do hate servicing my truck with the tires glossy, **** gets all over you. I use Meguiars Hot Shine¿?? Anyways I let it sit on the tires then wipe it off so it doesn’t sling all over the truck. Or if I’m in a rush I’ll spray the tires down and do a nice rolling burnout to clean them off

 

Just FYI, I called AR and they said it's a cast wheel and cannot be ordered with any other offset.

Also, the backspacing is different and if I calculated correctly, it would push the wheel more than an inch outwards. From what I can tell, just by measuring and looking at it, it looks like it would be a bit too much. It would stick out just enough that I don't think I would like it. Super ******* bummer, since they are super affordable and are my #1 wheel choie right now.

 

I found this guy on Instagram tonight. He confirmed these are the AR Patrol wheels. Looks like they fit just fine, unless you're really low.
