I was wondering is there a plan to offer the Saleen speed stars in a deep dish version in the 18x10? I included some pics of what I'm talking about. I think a lipped 18x10 would be perfect.
 
I have 2005+ 18x10 saleens on the back of my 97.

Ive never seen saleens in deep dish, they have ones that look kind of similar but arent saleens
 
Shame... They would look nice.

I don't think the design of the wheel would allow a "dished" look with a wide lip, the spokes extend into the lip itself so I'd think it would make it look kinda funky...just my opinion tho.

sure about that? i think its ballin'! a photoshop i found, but a good one. you get the idea.
 
These have got to be some of my favorite wheels. most of them anyway. I am just not even close to willing to drop $3k on wheels unless I've done a hub swap. That way I could sell them if I ever had to. Do terminator cobras have the same offset/backspacing as the mark's? (I know they have the 5x114.5 bolt pattern)

not quite. my terminator wheels are 26 mm offset. marks are 36 mm. now that's close enough to work, but can cause issues with wider wheels. 05+ wheels are a better fit as they seem to run a higher offset and tuck away from the fender a little better.
 
Yea 05 up wheels fit perfectly. With a 10in wheel in the back I just had to roll the fenders a little. If I had ran a 94-04 offset at my ride height I probably would have been cutting the fender lips completely off. 24mm offset vs 48mm offset would put the wheel an inch closer to the fender.
