    US Wheel had a good showing at this years 08 Spring Festival. Each day, more and more LX's are now getting USW forged wheels for there rides.

    www.USWheel.com

    USW had 7 sets of there wheels on some beautiful LX's, at 08 SF.

    The original and first style forged wheel from USW back in 06, The D-LUX. These looked great with the black tubs and polished centers on this Charger.

    The 5G's by USW were on 2 Magnums. The red set were amazing and the flames on top of each spoke is incredible.

    The other set of 5G's on a black magnum.

    This is the ICE version 1.

    This is another new design for 08 by USW, called the Stiletto.

    The Imperial. (also new for 08)

    The Extravagant.

    There would have been an 8th set of USW on display at 08SF but my Bee was not running right and did not make the trip out west for SF. This is the Blaze wheel by USW, on my Bee.

    I remember at the first SF in 06, I was the only one with the first set of D-Lux's on my 300. I am glad others have now found out how incredible these wheels are and there rides all looked incredible at this years 08 SF.

    Dude, your Bee freakin is hott!!! I love all those wheels. Dayum, I think the Stilettos would look eeemazing on my GCSRT8. Do you have the hook up with them? Do they make custom sizes and offsets? I'd like the Dlux for the Charger.

    best bee ive ever seen bar none.

    i do think though that its just too much yellow in the front area. the grill and lower grill need something....stripes or powdercoat black perhaps? it just doesnt look right....im thinking stripes...come in with the same design you have running on the hood. i would also have powdercoated the wheel lip black. it will make the yellow stand out just a bit more and not overwhelm the wheel.

    the hood is awesome btw. haha, sickest thing ive ever seen on a bee is that hood, great idea man. i can only imagine how sinister that thing looks coming up in your rearview.

    Thanks Chris. It was an honor to finally meet you at SF. I had fun in the private Sat. AM meeting with you, talking with the various team members from Chrysler and Dodge.

    Your Charger looks awesome and I was drooling all over it when it was parked out in front of the double tree on Sat night.

    Thanks. No special hook ups from USW I am a customer with them like everyone else. They do not offer sponsorship wheels anymore. I got there only set of sponsored wheels for my 300 back in Dec. 05

    The D-LUX does look great on the Charger as well. Here is SDCarguys on his Charger.

    Give USW a call www.uswheel.com there number is on there site. They can tell you if they can make a custom offset to clear your AWD off sets on your JeepSRT.

    oh damn, youre going with that tommy z look for the front grill? the jack o lantern type thing? omfg, that is going to look ridiculously good. i cant wait to see that man. you truly are an artist.

    i can understand if you want to retain the yellow on the wheels. it looks great either way dude.

    It was a pleasure to have finally met you face to face, at SF08, after we have spoken so many times on the forums. I lovvvvvve the way the D-LUX's look on your ride.

    I remember when USW shot my car in that same studio back in early 06. Your combination of black tubs and polished centers really sets them off. :bye:
