Those prices aren't insane, they cost about what any other custom 2-pc billet wheel costs. You guys are probably just used to cheap ZR1 and TT2 wheel pricing.

Go price some iForged, HRE, Fikse, CCW etc... and compare. About the same there.

those are sweet, maybe if they were all black with a polished lip they would look real good on a 4th gen, but what about third gens??? they used the crosslace wheel similar to that and i bet my old black 87 GTA would look badass with them

Those are the top of the market wheels. You can't say they aren't expensive as there's probably very few if any wheels that are more expensive.

I think they look cool on 2nd Gen. I would like to see someone do a 70ish Pro Tour Trans Am with those wheels.

Exactly, 4th gens have been on the road since 1992(93 models) and it seems like the majority of aftermarket wheels are tt2s or zr1s, I know they dominate this site.

I think they are hot. I love the little retro touches. if the formy was black they would look better. Now they need to repro a set of billet rally wheels like the 67-73's had.

I like them. I think if the 4th gen were black they would look a lot better. They look sweet on the Bandit though.

Dude, $2k for a set of these compared to $3k+ for a good set of 18" Fiske's, HRE's, or IForged wheels? It's a good deal.

Like a lot of other people said, they look awesome on the 2nd gen. but not so much on the 4th gen. They have a bit too much going on, and don't give the 4th gen. that sleekness it needs.

All I can say is if I was laying out $2K for wheels.... it wouldn't be for snowflakes.
