is it just me or do the wheels on your 964 look more like Cup1’s?

I found a company in Ontario, Augment Wheels, that makes custom forged wheels, and they specialize in slightly improved ("OEM+") designs that can be custom made to any size and fitment. I see they have examples of the Cup 1 wheel on a number of 964s and they look awesome! I was in contact with them recently about making a set of custom 18" Cup 2 wheels and they said no problem! Best of all, the price seems super reasonable ($850 USD/wheel).

Eager to hear opinions on this concept - would anyone else be tempted to do a set of 18" Cup 2s? Any concerns about quality or strength with a custom forged wheel?

Link to an old thread here with some discussion about the MM replicas, with some nice pictures of what I have in mind.
