Could someone post an estimate of what these wheels cost? I find myself drooling over all the nice wheels you guys have, but if they're $3K or like, well, its cheaper to buy bibs to just catch the drool.

Default $9k??

What if you bought them here (USA) and had 'em shipped to you in the UK? Do they slap you with an import tax? Seems like you could still save major bucks that way, even with the taxes/duties...

Yep I would get import tax plus shipping would be around $1200+ and then any warranty would be worthless, too much to send back.

There pretty hot on it now, they go and look up the retail price over here and whack the charges on.

I should think its about $4500 for you chaps to buy and in tradition double the price here.

Thanks aquanuke. So $4500 for these rims in the US. That at least puts it into perspective for me.

I know they aren't the Mayas because they are discontinued.

The Mayas were discontinued, but you can still order the Trafficstar RTS. Or at least you could a few months ago when I was considering them.
