These wheels are premium luxury wheels hand built 3 piece wheels. The benefits of multi-piece wheels are higher strength and more precise roundness and tolerances compared to a single piece cast wheel. Another feature of a multi piece wheel is the stainless steel lip. That allows for a deep almost 3" chrome like finish along with toughness and lightness. These wheels were professionally mounted and balance on the Hunter road force machine. Most of the wheels took .50 oz or less in comparison my factory wheels all took at least 1.50 oz per wheel or more

The tires are the top rated Continental SportContact 2. These tires were just featured in a test between all high performance tires in Car and Driver in which they finished 2nd. The tires also come factory equipped on the new 2006 BMW M5 (500 horsepower). I did use a larger size 225/40/18, in which they did not rub when my and my wife rode in the car. I would recommend the Alex from Tire Rack trimming mod if you typically have 2 or more passengers in the car.

I have sold many sets of wheels here on NAM. All of which have gone problem free. Please feel free to contact me if you have any further questions or would like to purchase the wheels. There are also many additional images of these wheels in my gallery.

My price: $1,500 or best offer!
