I had a set of these about 3yrs ago, and they're a great value for the price. 2pc cast and welded together, so about average for weight. Held up well for dd and autox use for me. They're made by SSR and were sold under the Speed Star Wheel name by Tire Rack, until being discontinued a couple years ago.

The car is very aggressive now but IMO it would look better if you painted all the CF parts.
