My friend has a digital camera. I'll snap some pics today. They look better than I thought. I think its b/c they are darker than most anthracites. Almost black, but you can still see the detail of the wheel. They are amazing

Wow, I like both of those colors! I think for my car the black ones would look better. My car is UGM.

Those are just about the best looking wheels I have seen. I just need to save up $3k now.

You should be able to spend $22-2300 on the wheels and tires. Call Gilbert @ Prodrive. The wheels list for just over $400/each. He may be able to give you a better price

Thanks for the tip. I just assumed they would cost as much as the GC-010E's, which are over $700 each on the prodrive price sheet.

I can actually afford these, well in a couple of months anyways!

Yes they are cast. Prodrive advertises them as being lighter than the stock BBS

Good question. Stock BBS are 17lbs IIRC so less than that but not sure on a specific weight. Anybody weigh their's before mounting?

These weigh less then the stock BBS wheels? These are an inch bigger and are cast instead of forged. How is that possible?

Not doubting you, I just wonder how they did it!
