I can't see your links but I remember the links to DarkMCS's car having monchar in them. If it is his car then the wheels are 18" Racing Hart C3. They should be made in a 17, but why, those 18s are gorgeous.

Looks somewhat similar to Keskin KT 4s.

They seem a little thicker in the spokes, but the cap is really similar. I have 17X8 on my MINI. Love 'em!

If the Racing Hart C3 is discontinued (rumor), this might be an option.

They are C3's and yes they were custom painted. Silver on the face of the spokes and black on the inside and sides of the spokes.

Do you have a sense for the general price range of these Keshkin KT 4's? (in 17's)

i really want those wheels but i do not like the idea its 18 "

i am rolling on 15 " now on a MC, and i really do not like the feeling of bumping around in the car that much, going slower, and fixing curb damage all the time......

i just should look at something else i guess, those Keskins i do not like that much, sorry , they are not that special

there are a lot of reproductions around , of very nice wheels but most of the times the reproductions just seem a little cheap to me.... i am looking for an elegant wheel for the right price...

just like those RH's

ill keep looking...

anyway very very cool wheels.
