Found these on clearance on Tire Rack, 20s are only $179 each for silver, 159 for black.... Never heard the brand though, but the design looks good.

Silver

Well, considering the black is basically sold out, if you didnt like silver, you would have to have them powdercoated anyway. lol
 
Yea, I cant remember what the OEM 20s weigh, but I have heard people be cautious about the TSWs being too light and getting wheel hop. But yea, the TSWs are like 22lbs, and these are around 26lbs.

But for 1/2 the price of TSWs, they could be a good alternative. Not everybody is doing their SHO to be a pure drag car. lol
 
Still sweet! Get the silver and powder coat them or Paint them to match the car leaving only the chrome you might want.  At this price, compared to the TSW, you can afford to get pretty creative.
 
I dropped 60 lbs from car going to my Nurburgring. I get a little wheel hop but I don't care. I'm almost pushing 400awhp. They are amazing rims and the weight savings is nice.

anyone know anything, or have any advice about, these Giovanna wheels.

Andros:  http://www.carid.com/giovanna-wheels/andros-black-machined-4013721.html

I feel like, with having a MKS, my options are a little more limited than if I had a SHO from a styling standpoint.  I want my MKS to still look luxury but sportier when it comes to the wheels.  i also want mainly black wheels with some machined accents to add a little contrast to my white car (I'm also thinking about painting the under-guard cladding of the car black vs the standard dark grey color).

the Sevans are more expensive but supposedly lighter.  I'm not too concerned with weight, as long as the car's handling/gas mileage is not adversely affected I'll be happy.  the Andros are cheaper and look really good to me and is probably the sportiest look i would go for.

i was also looking at the Ruff Racing R955s.

I know TSW wheels are very popular with SHO owners, but none of their wheels have the look I want…
