These wheels are made in the same exact factory vessels are made. See the link below not sure why you made that "face" there a great product:

They are low pressure cast for a street car I think that's fine...never had an issue with my lpc koseis. I would definitely like to see weights posted as well...maybe thy op can get in contact with his rep at velgen...it would help sell the wheels...if they aren't 30 lbs a piece...if I had to guess I would say in the 25 lb range

Are you implying they didn't start their operation as a well know quality wheel company? Pffff.

I am saying that trying to be like Vossen is not the worst thing in the world (as far as a successful money making venture).

especially when not everyone is looking for all-out performance wheels.

but i would be skeptical to run these on my Z though, as my Z is focused on motoring. the wheels look nice, but heavy.

Defiantly "for looks" wheels. Not that there is anything wrong with that.
