From that angle it kind of looks like a CLK 320. I also think it's a good photoshop job.... much better then I could ever do.....

IMO, I dont think those rims look good. Can someone explain to me the fascination with these rims? I know they are very expensive and should be light? Anything else?

WHOOAA... that car looks as high as the Isuzu in the back ground. I hope that is just the photoshop.

IMO, really need springs to make it look more aggressive. Also, are those 17" or 18"? they look like 17"

I agree, there are much nicer rims. These rims are just too boring.

Where can you get these for $440/each? Last time I priced them a local supplier quoted me at $525/each

I think they look great. I'll probably still go with the BBS RX though. They're less than $300/each, are almost as light and are a little classier looking, IMHO.

But they look great in that picture.

And yes... very CLK320'ish.

They are very nice wheels [just like all Volk wheels]...just not on a CL though. Sporty wheels vs. classy car.

They would look the best on an Integra coupe, Civic [especially 92-95 hatchback] and the S2000.

To get silver it's still an add'l $30/wheel which brings it up to $470/each but still... That's better than the $525 I was quoted!!
