Love them, but would like to see the center hub in black also.

They quoted me $6998 + shipping today. MSRP is $8780. A good looking wheel but too rich for my blood right now.

The graphics on that car are fugly IMO. Poor choice to use as a show car.

I like the basic design and prefer a one piece forged wheel like these. Not sure about the center "hump" on the front wheel. These look to be available in 19" only, so I'll probably wait for an 18" option for dedicated track use.

They are 19s and I assumed the same exact size and offset as stock but I didn't get serious enough to ask for more details.

At this price, I rather go with the ones BBS motorsport is releasing.

I am considering those red CLs for my white GT3 with Ti wheels.

Ouch - I knew they were high but didn't have the exact price. I think I can wait for the newness of the aftermarket centerlocks to wear off a bit before buying a second set. I'll let someone else pay the bulk of the R&D work hopefully...

I'm still debating having mine painted/powdercoated a matte black but I like the Ti color too and I'm not really crazy about messing around with an $8k set of wheels...
