(#2) Weds Sport Carbon Fiber Wheel
You knew this one had to be here, pure fantasy or no. Weds Sport now offers a line of pure carbon fiber wheels currently priced at between $8,000 and $10,000 a set. That is ungodly expensive, but on the other hand, it's not that much more than some of the priciest forged racing wheels out there.
If you've got the money to spend, Weds will make you a set to custom fit almost any application.

(#3) Mach M3
Sized 18 to 20 inches and available in common five-bolt sizes, there's just something indefinable about the Mach M3 that screams "cool." It's a little bit BMW, a little bit Tron, and just detailed enough to be interesting in any finish. For $600 to $800 a set, you'd have trouble finding a better deal. -
(#4) Nutek Series 605
The Nutek 605 is a serious lightweight performance wheel for people with serious money. It's available in 18-inch and 19-inch diameters, as well as widths up to 14 inches. That makes it fairly appropriate as the rear roller for most mid-engine supercars. And at almost $5,000 a set for the most expensive, you can bet that's who'll be shopping for them.
However, the rest of us mere peasants can get into a base model 605 for just $2,000 a set.

(#6) Ground Force GF9
Available in 19 inches and sized to fit most domestic five-bolt applications, the GF9 is subtly cool in a very un-subtle way. The multi-layered detailing almost makes it look like it could be a cast magnesium rim from the 1960s, but the size and design are decidedly modern. And at about $1,280 a set, they're also notably inexpensive for good 19-inch wheels. -
(#8) XD Series Rockstar
Ostensibly, Rockstar's thing is rock-crawling Jeeps, but its wheels have gotten pretty popular among urban crawlers. This nuclear-tough design comes in sizes ranging from 17 to 22 inches, fits most American truck bolt patterns, and ranges from $1,000 to $2,000 a set depending on the color and finish. -
(#9) BBS Super RS
Another classic design brought to the 21st century, the forged BBS Super RS has been around long enough to qualify as nostalgic for some of us. Nowadays, it's available in sizes up to 19 inches, fits most domestic five-bolt patterns, and comes in many finishes including polished aluminum, silver, gray, gloss and matte black, and gold. Reasonably priced at about $1,300 a set. -
(#10) The Deluxe Wheel Company Whitewall Wheel
No, that's not an old-school white-wall tire on a 15-inch steel rim. It's a fully modern tire wrapped around 20 inches of forged 6061 aluminum. That big "white-wall" is actually part of the rim. Inner sections are available in polished aluminum or matte black for that classic steelie look. Priced from $2,700 to $3,500 a set. -
(#11) American Racing AR767 Steel Wheels
No, they're not forged aluminum and they definitely won't win you any points at car shows. But the classic American Racing steel wheel is about as cool as it gets for stripped-down musclecars and trucks. Cheap, too, at just $250 to $400 a set.
Available in sizes up to 20 inches, and in practically every bolt pattern ever used in the United States.
-
(#13) Helo Maxx
Even big truck drivers like a bit of style, and that's just what this 8-lug Maxx delivers. Sized in 16 or 17 inches, the Maxx's silver detailing gives it a bit of jewel-like slickness, but its overall construction says "ready to rumble." Building a bad-boy diesel hot rod?
Then check out the Maxx, very reasonably priced at $600 to $700 a set.
-
(#14) Foose Classics F226 10-Spoke
Think of the Foose 10-Spoke as the "Gasser Mag Plus." It wouldn't pass for one of those classic rims in polished aluminum, but that's nothing a little sandblasting and paint wouldn't fix. Or, if shiny is your thing, you can just leave it as-is.
Sized 17 to 18 inches, available in most domestic five-bolt patters, and priced about $3,000 a set.
-
(#15) Gianelle Tropez
It's hard to pull off 26 inches without looking ridiculous, and harder still to do it in bronze, but Gianelle definitely manages with the Tropez. Available for most domestic five-bolt hubs, the Tropez sells for about $2,800 and comes in silver, black ,and gray.
But you really want the bronze finish - oh yes, you do.
-
(#17) Euromeister Porsche 911/930 Replica Wheel
Fuchs-style Posche wheels are the Torque Thrust IIs of Europe, used most famously on classic Porsche 911/930 models. Euromeister makes modern replicas to fit 17-inch tires and 5 x 130 bolt patterns, but custom patterns for non-Porsche applications are available. Very reasonably priced at $680 a set. -
(#18) DPR Stealth
Available in sizes from 18 to 22 inches, the Stealth is understated enough to stay true to its name, but bold enough to make an entrance when need it needs to. It's available in several finishes including chrome, silver, gloss and matte black, and the silver-accented black seen here.
Priced from $1,000 to $1,600 a set, depending on finish.
-
(#19) Avid AV12
A no-nonsense forged wheel evocative of some of the earlier aftermarket racing designs. Chunky and good-looking in a restrained way, the Japanese Avid AV12 would be a perfect fit for any number of classic German sports cars. Avid offers them in 15-inch and 16-inch fitments with multiple Honda bolt patterns, but custom fits are available.
Look at about $600 a set and at least double that for custom fits.
-
(#20) Fuel Anza
Is it even possible to not love this design? Available from 15 to 17 inches in most domestic five-bolt patterns, the Anza looks like something you'd find on Christian Bale's Batmobile. It's available in any combination of black, silver, or gray inner section or outer rings, and, at $650 to $800 a set, it won't eat too much of your cape budget.
