I got the rims and they look amazing. the quality was great. but i have the 19s hyper dark. I think that is the cheapest. finding a place that sells those rims is hard as hell.

I was the 1st to have them(not the 1st to mount them lol). Mine were great, only problem I had was a small nick around the lug holes, which came from swapping them at the track all the time.

Great wheel. I still get pms asking me where I got them and I swear I cannot recall. I sent tons of pms back in 05 to most people that were the 1st to get them, dont know if the place still sells them or not. I found them by absolute luck when I was deployed to the desert in 05 on a random google search.

sigh..I miss my car, its just over a month since she's been gone.

I think they only look fantastic on the yellow anniversary edition ws6. But the more I look at them on other color ws6's, the less I like them.

The hyperdark evos look ridiculously good on Black TA's.

If I wasn't obsessed with having a lightweight wheel, that's what I would be running.
