I may be dumping the OEM "flower" rims from my 2013 SHO in the not to distant future and want to see what everyone has put on from the aftermarket rim manufacturers. So please take the time to post up some pictures of what brand/type, size and offset you are running.
 
I have tsw nurburings on my sho 20x8.5 up front 20x10.5 rears. I love the look. I need some springs though. The wheel gap is alittle much. Dont have great pictures yet but here are a few
 
I have the TSW Nurburgrings for my winter wheel setup. I love the look and glad I picked them up for $600 used from another member because they do not hold up well through the winter.
 
Um... OK!

22x9 +37
22x10 +37

L&B Forged out of Anaheim, CA. 

Flex options basically bolt right up to a SHO, since we're brothers.


Now then, if you want a suggestion, on the high end of things, I would recommend Finspeed for forged 20's or 22's.

On the mid-end, beautiful wheels from Ace Alloys, MHT/Foose, and Avant Garde.  Also Velgen, Incurve, and Concavo. 

On the low (but still quality) end, consider options like Discount Tire Direct's Falken "FK" series.  Awesome wheels for the buck, and light.
 
SRT8........as soon as $2500 opens up, I'll be purchasing a set of Stance SC-5ives in Matte Black Machined.......20x9 in the front & 20x10 in the rear.  Not sure exactly what tire I want yet.

I also like Petrol Throttles.........

I was looking at a set of Avant Garde wheels, Vossen's too, but man they seem to be heavy. They are both just low pressure cast...

Ive been looking at wheels that are at least flow formed.

Forgestar, but hear mixed reviews on the quality.

HRE makes a flowformed wheel nowadays... called the FF01 that looks good, but being HRE it's still pricey.

Advanti makes a fewbfor relatively cheap, and while Ive found nothing negative about Advanti (the make formula one wheels), I still wonder...

Hell CCW makes monoblock forged wheels for under 800 each.
They are huge in the Muscle segment and they are quality,  but not sure of finish options as I dont want polished.

Low-pressure cast will be lighter than stock in most situations, but yes they are potentially heavier than flow-formed/Rotary.  CCW is an awesome brand, and yes they make bad-ass wheels.  BUT...they are tuned for 18's and under.  In small sizes, they are the ultimate option.  Bigger though, and you might as well go something else.  For about that $800 each range, we're right back in Finspeed's territory.

I was eying these as possible replacements on my '13 SHO...

Yep, nice wheel.  Watch those spokes at the lip, that's a tough part for scrapes and also wheel / tire mounting in general.  But otherwise, great.  That shape will trick your eye into believing you have a 21" wheel, when in fact you have a 20".

i just put a set of vertini's on my sho. my '10 had the non-pp wheels which were nice but all aluminum color. what i wanted since mine is white is  a black wheels with a good amount of chrome. they weren't cheap as have the fastners in chrome & don't know what to call them but bars as well as outerwheel chromed. like them a lot but may not be a big enough difference to what you already have. my prior wheels closed down the wheel area to just wheels, these opened if up quite a bit. i know a lot of you don't like the mgp cover but opened view to them up, so if you had willwoods, brembos, or just painted caliphers these opened area up to see them.

Yes, the Hybris is one of my favs... just wish it was 9.5 like the Rein.
And correct, umbrella with Konig,  Privat, et al

Ill look into Finspeed too, even checked l&b but nothing grabbed my attn

I like this one http://advantiwheel.com/current-wheels/rn-rein-silver-machined/
and this http://advantiwheel.com/current-wheels/hybris-machined/

I don't have an issue with Advanti, they have decent wheels.  I think their owner is also the owner of Konig.  Just playing by memory.

I wouldn't recommend L&B, its a 3 piece wheel and that means they weigh much more than a monoblock wheel will.

It is a shame more rotary / flow-formed wheels aren't out there.  Great tech.
 
Yea those are nice too... Breyton designed.

Low pressure cast, so a step up from basic gravity cast but still heavier/weaker then their flow formed stuff
 
just got some Verde Saga wheels installed.

to me they seem to, shall we say, emulate Giovanna/Gianelle (sic) wheels at about 60% of the cost.  shipping invoice states they weigh about 33.5 pounds a piece.

i like these, but they have completely transformed the look of my MKS into mostly sporty, so i'm going to have to make some further cosmetic changes to go with the flow…
