I have had a set of their 050 on my gtfour for years now. I know a few who have raced on that model of wheel without any issues as well. I hope these are in the similar wight class of the 050. 17x9 around 20lbs. I like these new styles and depending on the weight I might get a set.

I like the 527...

and any wheels... no matter name brand or not they eventually bend... especially pot holes.

ah, second thought, not gonna spring for these..
Chrome lip really aint my thing.
Good deal for anyone else tho.. sick deal.

Id rather have convex rather than lip and also be able to change powdercoat colors often anyways..
Forgestar F14s come in 12 inch too.
Back to plan A..

Yea. I hear ya.. have ya looked at wheel costs for a set of modular 20x11 plus?
Um..Works are the CHEAP side of that world. 1200-1600 per wheel seems to be a very average price. I make 75k a year dude..that kind of spending will never happen for me.

google it, next level motoring is the first hit, its all right there.

They are OK.. but they are so cheap its almost disposable. 860 for a set of wheel shipped.. im sure they are all over 30 lbs at the 20" level.

since money was kind of tight...i considered the 526's 18x10.5 all around.

the more i look at them...the more they look...convex as the spokes go towards the lip.

i need to see them on the Z first...but i think i'll most likely just save my money for something else.
