Now that's a great looking wheel I just love it.

What store did you deal with in the US? Would you recommend them? Thanks

I have not yet brought mine (Santas on the way) but they are the makers and they have been good in their replies so far.

Craig,

I am about to order a set of 18 x 8 1/2 and 18 x 10 from www.westcoastwheelfactory.com

Bruce passed on the details and I have been talking to them for about a week. Just need to confirm all of the dimensions on Monday.

They do a good deal with tyres too. I am looking like getting Falken 452 in 235x40x18 and 285x35x18 sizes for $775 USD shipped.

I will be out in the garage tomorrow measuring up for the offsets!

Ben

That is an impressive looking wheel. How much are you talking for the set of 4?

About $2500 US plus $500 shipping and insurance,

Pretty good with our exchange rate at the moment.

I was quoted $2400 for 17".
The finish on these wheels is mirror right into the corners.
I just hate paying other people who dont add value to the product. Maybe I bring 2 at a time back in my luggage when I go to US. They weigh about 20kg each.
