Don't get me wrong, I like several wheels from Lowenhart, and my barber has a 01' S430 with Lorinsor LD-1's and it is extremely clean. But trust me guys when I say that my wheels will no where near pass for stock wheter I'm rolling or parked!
And Eppan, They are already mounted up! And come on guys, I know that you know how funky chrome spokes look while they're in motion! :eek: :eek: :eek:

Victoria's prices seem too good to be true! Are these prices for new rims or used? Bottom line, why so cheap?????
