Nice pick up! I keep looking at them too. Are they rattle canned that way or can you buy them like that?

I think they are an incredible design for a wheel, but they need a lip!

Nice, should look good on your car. What size are they, and have you weighed them?

yeah I'd love it if they had a lip but they're still pretty nice looking. these are 17x8.5's, I'll weigh them when I get a chance. I was going to yesterday because I noticed they were pretty heavy. and this is the "hyper black" color 6LE sells I believe.


I was saving for some Nitto 555's or NT05's for my c4 zr1's which I JUST bought, but I wanted something sticker than the 555 for track/autox but with better wear than the NT05 for daily use so I was stuck. then I found these and figured I'd settle for a narrower and less sticky tire for daily use (especially considering the price) and then I'll go ahead and get the NT05's or straight slicks for the c4's eventually since I don't have to worry about treadwear anymore.

in total this is the 7th set of wheels I've owned for this car, and I think now that I have 3 sets that I like I'm finally done

yeah if I had my choice I'd have gone 18x9.5 with a 275 or 285 tire but oh well, I'm still very happy with them though
