I do want to echo a question above me and ask, WHY and WHAT about your wheels make then better than a set of, say, Rays forged wheels. I just never understood why yours, HRE, and some others out their are THAT expensive.

Well, I can understand super lightweight mag wheels - there are exceptions.

Are these produced in America? If so why are we - American's - paying more when we can get a set of the new TE37 G2's for what, half the price? A friend of mine with an RS4 has a set of the p90 HRE's and they're gorgeous but besides it being a custom wheel and already hubcentric I dont understand why they are that much more?

Are yours stronger than say Rays forged wheels (similar to the OEM wheel they produce)...

Are yours lighter? That sure hasnt been the case for most of the iforged/HRE/etc etc type wheels that I have picked up.

I love your designs, and you seem like your trying to turn over a new leaf but please help us understand why your wheels are that much more superior to some of the top manufactures out their.

EDIT: I'm not sure why i put the America thing on this post, and I know the answer to that would probably be "well we pay our people more than they do" and thats legit, but I would like answers for everything else!
