Antera wheels what do you think?

here is the deal Antera is having a sale on all their wheels and I was considering swapping my SSR Comps for a set of these in 18 x 8 with 245/40 tires. I am looking for a sick looking, classy yet sporty, timeless design and quality wheels and I don't know if these fit the bill.
These rims are made in Italy and are cast so they weigh about 25 lbs. pretty heavy I know compared to my comps.

What do you guys think here are some pics. I found on a tl I believe they're 19 so mine would look smaller. Any info is welcomed






and they fit the Brembos cause they have enough spoke clearance. What do you think SSR Comps or these?

Those look sweet!!

Of course, SSRs look damn good, too. But, I bet fewer people will have these.

I have Antera's on my truck, and I couldn't be happier. They're classy, sporty and turn heads all the time. They're also very durable, since they have certainly taken a serious beating this winter with all the damn potholes!

Get some Antera's, they're great!

Those Anteras are tight! They kinda look like MBZ rims. I like the lip on them.

Honestly, I think those are 19" or 20". there is no way those are 18" wheels in those tl pics. either way, they do look good, go for it.

All I know is he quoted me a price of like $2k for 18" with 245/40 tires that was my choice I will probably go with 235/40 in Falcons or Toyos Im thinking Fz4. I paid more than that for my 17" and tires. but they are forged and lightweight.

Sorry Rob but I didn't even go to the rim store for me I went looking for a friend and the owner remembered that I wanted 18" and he told me that they were on sale and trying to sell them quick. I then told him I just bought my SSR and he told me we can work a trade out I think he is going to low-ball me but if he does that deal is off and probably buy online. Hey Rob the Modena are hot as hell and if I had to pic the ROH anyday but they are quite expensive you got hookups how much can you get them for maybe Ill swing with those if good deal.

Swap'em!!! Those rims are the shiiiiiiiiiit!!! Oh yea...does anyone know if the SSR's come in Hyperblack? I'm thinking of getting those this summer but if not I'll go with a similar rim. I think black rims w/ a lil chrome look cool!!
