I've heard of them, but I think they're really expensive. Buy a set and tell us about them. That weight of 16.5lbs for a 19" wheel is very impressive!

well thats what actually makes me skeptical. There website says for the 19" rims, any of the 3 options in any finish is just $299 per rim, forged. and you can even get them custom engraved for a decent price.

OK, then maybe not the same company I was thinking of...sorry. Still, buy them and tell us how they are. Remember, in these dark economic times, the way out is through a consumer led recovery!!
