These are Cheap gravity cast rims but they look way better than the stock steel rims/hubcaps it had. I wanted an easy to clean rim that showed off the 4 wheel disc brakes. These fit the bill. My Elantra is pearl black so the rims look good against the black body.
I also had Tire Rack install the Bridgestone Potenza RE960as Pole position tires with them.
I haven't driven it hard yet until the tires break in but it already rides and drives better that the stock tires and steel rims. At 16 lbs they are some of the lighter rims.
I am happy with the tires/rims and Tire Rack.
One note is that they came with black valves and not silver. That would be my only complaint. It looks a little out of place having the black valve stem in the silver rim.
Ordered Friday, got Monday. They shipped from Georgia. Very fast delivery.

I bought these wheels to use with Summer tires primarily because the original wheels while nice when new, really went downhill in appearance, pealing clearcoat, corrosion, ugh! I'm keeping them for the winter. Anyway, these look great, clean up easily, and were a good value. Exactly what I was looking for.

Bought these wheels to mount a new set of Bridgestone Blizzak runflats on. I was looking for the cleanest possible design to make washing as easy as possible during the winter while retaining the aggressive stance of my 135ic. They're winners on both counts. They do a great job of both counts. Their open spoke design do a great job of showing off the cars 6-pot disks and make cleaning the slush and salt off with a high pressure coin wash an absolute breeze. To finish them off, I purchased a set of BMW logo tin stickers to mount on the centre caps. For all intents and purposes they look like a set of limited edition OEM wheels. Very impressive.
