I have not dealt with them personally, but from a few people I have met through out the car world the genral opinion seems to be to stay away from them. If you don't mind, what wheels are you looking at?

Wow...those are garbage.

It's a shame that HRE and Kinesis are listed among those other brands.

what's make them garbage besides the fact that you are probably like the masses that if you don't follow the crowd and want a black wheel something's wrong.

They are just ghetto looking, low-quality, no-name brand Taiwanese wheels like practically everything else on that site.

There is a reason why those wheels (with some equally crappy no-name tires) are selling for ~$1500 where as a properset of wheels alone usually go for more than double that. You couldn't pay enough to swap those out for the stock wheels, but hey...whatever floats your boat.

And, no...I'm not partial to black wheels.

No one asked your opinion on looks but if you want to voice your opinion thats fine,feel free to by what you like and send them to me and i will try them.
I asked if anyone has delt with that company? not your opinion on what you like. if you want to start making the paymnents on this z then i will entertain the thought of putting what you like on it.
Now have you had any dealings with this company?
If the wheels are crap please give me some informed information of why (i.e.) there are records that they have broken,improper fit, etc...
Perhaps the next thread will be " Hey pick me some wheels , i don't know what i like"

Snakebite202 · 09-21-2009, 10:54 AM

I have heard stories of poor finish quality - all in all you get what you pay for! Go on the top wheels sites online or the top vendors period and you won't find these wheels there, there's a reason for that.

Z1Performance · 09-21-2009, 12:56 PM

the offsets for these are horrendous, and are going to look a bit odd

I know nothing about that seller, nor the wheel brand at all

Snakebite,Z1, Thanks for your input. I don't know much about top wheel sites. I bought my last set of wheels from discount tire but they went on a dodge ram. the z is a different animal. I want the deep dish look if possible, maybe just possible on the back??
I will continue researching and gathering info.

nogoodname · 09-21-2009, 09:36 PM
