Anyone possibly have these yet? I want to get them but I don't want to buy and find out they look like crap in person.

I think they look damn good.
I would need to see them in person before I could commit to buying them tho.

i got a good story for you guys.. me and my buddy decided we wanted to pain our calipers, and i figured since i orderd the fr500s the night before, and there are such big spaces between spokes, red or black calipers would look sick.  so were on our way to autozoneto pick the duplicolor up, and all they had was black... well we decided black wouldnt stick out eonough and decided to drive to the otherautozone that had the red... on the way there a tahoe turned infront of me and an intersection.. and well i basically was about to cry... watching my 200$ headlight fly straight up into the air and losing a clear fog light somewhere.. my passenger door wont open and i have a front bumper held up  by the wiring for my underbody lights.. im pissed/shocked... all for red calipers! now i orederd these rims and i cant put them on for 6 weeks.. i cant afford them! haha.... at least it wasnt my fault

I just got the FR500s for my horse.  Replaced the 17" gray bullitts with 18" rims.  Got Nitto 555s on them.  I'm pretty happy with them.  I wasnt bold enough to get the chrome either....just a bit too bright for my taste.  And the black seems to blend in with the wheel well and tires, so I went with silver with a polished lip.

I just got the chrome FR550's today and you are right, they are freakin bright.  I am pretty happy with them so far though.
