Summit Legend 5 wheels - anybody using them?

[Glock 18]

Dude, the rims look NICE! Think of it this way, with the cash you saved over more expensive rims, you can put it in a Mason jar and put toward another performance part. Or, put a little extra toward the Principal on the house!

Spent the $ on e-heads, manifolds, and Moser 12 bolt. I can't wait for spring!

Anyone else with pics? I see these are offered in 18" now with the correct bs for a 2nd-gen!

[woody80z28]

I found a good picture of the 18 (looks like the changed the lip and the mounting face for the bigger size). Now I'd like to see them on a car.

You sure this picture is the Summit brand Legend rim? It doesn't have the stepped rim like in the Malibu in the pictures above. The center cap is different too.

A friend of mine on NastyZ28 gave me a heads up about them. Vision is the manufacturer of the Summit wheels. They offer a "141" Legend 5 in 15 & 17" and a "142" Legend 5 in 18 & 20".

Summit just added them to the catalog and have no accurate pictures up yet. I found the accurate pics by searching Vision wheels.

I like the revised mounting pad better, although I did like the previous lip. I'd like to see a set on a car before I shell out the cash for a set though.

They may be available in 18 inch with either style. If you look on the Summit web site there are 18 inch gun metal legend wheels & there are also 18 inch gun metal with machined lip listed seperately.

Nevermind when I went back and looked at the vision site and summit it looks like 18's that fit a chevy only come with machine lip. If you remove the 5 x 4 3/4 pattern from the query you get both to show up in 18 inch. My bad

[woody80z28]

Bump bump bump... haha I would buy a set myself just to see, but I've gotta wait until I get my firt-time homebuyer rebate back. Closing is sucking up all my cash.

[Jasons72]

Oh man much nicer! that mounting flange looks so much better

[woody80z28]

I guess no one has seen these in person yet.

Go to visionwheel.com where you'll find several different styles. Go to Legend 5 and there's the 141 smaller diameter and 142 larger diameter. Look near wheel specs and there's a few pictures of customer's cars with these rims. One is a Nickey '10 Camaro with the chrome 142s. Good luck!

You'll see the 142's on my s10 in a few days. Got 'em in the basement right now, 18x8.5's. THey look EXACTLY licke the picture, and FWIW, I think the 18's look muuuuuuuuuuuch better. I got them so cheap I can't say, but I got them for wholesale since I work @ a tire store

The 142's look nice with the curved spokes. I'm worried about a 4.5"bs on an 8.5" wheel though up front. The other choice is 5.125, which seems a little much. Doesn't anyone do a 4.75 or 4.875?

Hey Firewood, any pics yet?

I found a cool 360 view on Summit, but it's a 20":

Oh man, I would have went this direction if the 18's were out when I bought my rims.
