Not bad looking, but about as conservative a design as you can get. I like clean and non-fussy, but these are a little TOO much. They look very...OEM.


Edit: so-so offsets too.

Top photo is the new VR.G10, no info on that particular wheel as of yet. The bottom wheel is from RAYS Black Fleet line.

I can appreciate the concept of moving a classic design forward,
but the execution is just not effective.

Hey Andy, I've asked Brian for some info on some Rays Master Piece LUG X10 wheels that I'm interested in running for my next project. Can I order them or those Black Fleet wheels through you once I'm ready?

I believe Black fleet is for more Luxury and VIP vehicles. It would be great to see a set on a Z.

The one thing that I loved about the TE/LE's is the concavity of the blocky spokes.

The G2's look (like someone already mentioned) stock oem. Almost like they came off the a track 370z or something. Granted the GT2 BMW has some concavity, how wide is the body? Come to think of it, anything will look good on that BMW GT car.

Oh well, someone will promote them on their car in some sweet satin black color but for now they're nothing special.
