The top of the driver's door needs some anti-aliasing help but it looks MAD pimp. Good work!

If the car looked like that and had a twin-turbo 400hp engine, I'd buy two.

In the meantime, I've had offers but I'm not itching to sell. If I ever buy another set of wheels, I am definetly getting ace alloy wheels. them things are strong as hell, and they look sweet. Hyperblack looks so good in person, but I may want chrome. also the absence of a lip makes it harder to bend a rim. I met some kid at nathans who has the same wheels in silver and he blew out a tire without a scrtch on the rim. I did hear that their chrome sucks and their finnishes durability is questionable, but mine are great. They are at $1350 now.

If you have seen my car, you will know that if I get them, they will HAVE to be chrome!!!!! What do you think if I had them chromed myself???? There are places here and in Los Angeles that do AWESOME chrome work!!!! I would probably add about 200 - 300 per rim, but at least you know the chrome will be AWESOME!!!!

I was surprised to hear that the Manta's were one piece forged!!! And really light from what I hear.

How much would you sell just the rims for?????
Just out of curiosity????

I would sell them for $1350, but I'm not sure if they are forged or not. they are really light, true. I wouldn't buy ace's chrome since I've been told buy a major rim and tire distributor that their chrome sucks. Then again, he could be wrong.
