Looks to me like you will have to buy a black one and have all of them powdercoated the same color.

Yes. We have quite a few sizes on order.. Nothing yet though.

They are only coming in decent widths in 19 & 20 inch sizes.

HPR5 looks pretty similar if you must have that style. probably not the quality of the privats but still a good wheel

There's 1 huge difference between the Privat's and the HPR5..

The Privats are the correct bolt pattern for F-Bod's.

5-120 DOES NOT EQUAL 5-120.65!!

It will bother you when your studs break one day from being over stressed.

The weight will be significantly less at that point from the wheels falling off.

When you install a 120mm wheel on a 120.65 B.C., you're bending the studs to get them to center properly with the lugnut seated in the wheel.

If they break, it will be from stressing them, not the weight of the wheel.
