These are triple chromed, TUV approved, and are made by a joint venture between Borbet and Binno.

Pricing seems pretty good too 17x7.5s are $1,036 for the set, 18x7s are $1,196, and 18x8.5s are $1356. If we order 12 sets, the price drops by 20%. I doubt that's going to happen, but if it did, the 17x7.5s would drop down to $828 for 4.

If anyone has an interest, I've provided a link to the customwheels.com below. But would like your opinion on these.<ul><li><a href="http://www.customwheelsmarket.com">customwheelsmarket.com </a></li></ul>

They look awesome, but the notches make them look a little too masculine for me.

The 17" are 24lbs, & the 18" are 26.5lbs. Sold in Germany & meet TUV standards, so they s/b strong.

They are a little heavy but for the price they are a good buy.

Default I don't think they are two piece wheels - just have fake bolts

but I could be wrong. Lots of "fake 2 piece" wheels out there right now.
