Default My New Wheels Just Flew In...

... from Italy! They are Forged Alloy USA's Tech1-110. These are Ø18", for the track. They look beautiful, and I'm thrilled with the quality and workmanship.

To get yourself a set, contact Mike Burroughs, http://www.forgedalloysusa.com/

Apologies in advance for the crappy iPhone pictures, but I was so excited to come home and find them at my door - I just had to share.

Savyboy has the same wheels - he put them on a scale. Here is the post:

Thanks!

Nope, the rears are the same as the fronts - just wider!
