Any thoughts? Experiences? Other cheap recommendations?

For that money and the shear weight of the wheel (22.5lbs) I wouldn't personally buy them.

I like the style but ,not for that much, at least for a regular wheel.

try tinyurl.com to get a smaller link,..

lighter is always better. less weight that has to be moved around

How cheap do you want to get? For $205 a peice, which is only $200 more total you could get these:

Similar style but crazy light! These are the wheels I want to get so just wait a while before you get them, OK. :lol:

Sorry it gives me CDN prices. Well they do have other colors as well, and for $145, 14.2 lbs, personally I would go with any of them. I might go green just so people don't want to steal them! Nahh, I am thinking the orange on my dark green car!! :lol:
