Just did a very quick search... didn't find a lot of info.

What are you going to do with 18x7's anyway? Winter setup?

Paul, I had a set back many years ago on my 1994 Maxima. They are not a high quality wheel but they never gave me any problems in the few years I had them.

They are made in Quebec, I believe.

The main company is called Fastco and they make auto accesories and wheels, etc. Their website is : http://www.fastco.ca/

The wheel division is here: http://www.fastwheels.ca/

Absolutely nothing
I have never heard of the wheel company so I asked about them. I couldn't find any good info or reviews about them on line. I know that should tell me quite a lot but like I said...just curious.
Cheers

I am from QUEBEC and previously had FAST wheels on my other car. I was not satisfied with them! they have been damaged several times (due to holes on the road)
the rims are not strong enough for here so I would not recommend them based from my experience. You can find better quality elsewhere.
One of the best I've seen so far was OZ RACING. Thoses rims are made in Italy and it is VERY VERY strong. Never got problems with them. Hope this help you make a good choice!

Borderline. It's good to hear from someone that has used them. I think we all came to the conclusion that since they are not very popular then they probably are not great.
Thanks for chiming in.

PS
you don't have to shout Quebec...I can hear you, lol.

I can vouch for that!! just got a set of ultrleggera'a in 18x8 silver finish... they weigh exactly the same as the stock 17x7's about 47.5 lbs with 245/45 kuhmo's.....

That was my rims on my other car too Ultraleggera 18" in gold color. They was little pricey ($489 each) but was worth the money spent I can tell you!

Yeah Triton...you can't talk about new wheels without pics. I think it's against forum rules or something.
