What size? 18s or 19s. 5 spokes to me always look better in the larger sizes.

I kinda like 'em. I'd have to see them 'on' before I stroked a check, but they're pretty sharp.

I agree that the 5 spokers look better big. These spokes are nice and fat (compared to the finger spokes you sometimes see) and the lip is suitable for entertaining a family of four as is the trend these days.

The only thing I'm not completely crazy about is the myriad of bolt patterns in the center cap, and I'd prefer the fingers to have a bit of a curve or character line in them so they didn't seem quite so flat.

Overall though, I think they look good. If I knew how to Photoshop (I can barely spell it) I'd hook it up.

I like the size of the spokes but I agree with GeeWillikers re: the holes & they could use some more ummm......texture. Should look sharp tho.

As always the question is - "How do YOU feel about them?"

The only thing I don't like is the fact they're multi-hole drilled, instead of just 5, but that's just me. Good looking wheel otherwise.

^^ I agree
I had multi- hole b4 my PIAAs.
Didn't notice to much at first, but grew to dislike the look of empty holes.

Nice look otherwise; any weight data?

Thanks for all your opnions.

The holes due take some time to get use to, but I love the lip and design.

The price is actually very inexpesive. $225 for one rim, 18 X 9.5 35 mm off set, so they are pretty damn cheap when compared to Volk and RH.

Funny thing my tires will cost more than then rims.

a little too clean as you put it for me. Need a little more shape, a little more texture, a little more shine. Definitely the right track though particularly in the second shot (with the tint). I just don't think we need to alert the media cos we found the Holy Grail or anything.
