*** USA-only Group Buy: AQ Maxilite 17" wheels ***

RECENTLY MADE AVAILABLE IN THE USA!!!

MANUFACTURER:
RH Alurad - AQ Maxilite 17x7" 7-spoke alloy wheels
SPECS: Direct fit for the new MINI (4x100 lug pattern) with an ET45 offset
FINISH: Polished silver (Optional painted at $100/wheel)
RETAIL: $229/wheel

GROUP BUY DETAILS:
I've negotiated an awesome Group Buy rate with RH USA! With a minimum of 6 committed buyers (with deposit), they are offering the wheels at $778/set -- Comes to $194.65 per wheel! Shipping directly to your home is $25/wheel for East Coast, $20/wheel for West Coast addresses.

While there has been an International-based group buy for these same wheels already, their price with shipping is $1000 for the same wheels, incomparable to the rate we obtained from talking to the US distributor directly. So check out the photos, specs, and email me directly ONLY when you've decided to purchase please - ebasserk-mini2@yahoo.com

Are they really "Maxilite"?

Nice looking wheels and photos. Those MINIs need some wider tires or they are destined for some serious "curb-action".

They look very similar to the "S-lites" R-85 below!

Does the name hold any truth, (Maxilites), in that they are actually "lightweight"?

Do you, or does anyone know the weight of the Maxilites compared to the S lites R-85?
