New shoes!!!

I finally got my wheels put on my car. Haven't seen anyone else with this particular selection so it looks like I'll be unique for a little while (until you guys guess the brand). Here are a few small clues... (1) They are "slightly" lighter than the stock 17" wheels. (2) They have a +40 offset. (3) The Mfg website does not portrary these wheels correctly so they look quite different in person. (4) I saw these on a 2002 BMW Z3 coupe (hardtop). (5) They have a number of sizes and you also see these on the new 7-series BMW's. Enter your guess below. First one to get it right gets bragging rights (no cash, but does get bragging rights). Oh yea, let me know what you think. After the corredt guess, I'll add the other photos which show the caps with the companies logo on em...

These go by the same name as HOward Stern's favorite strip club. Different spelling. No ride change at all. Same original HPT tires.

Not feeling them. Why 17s? 19s are a perfect match for your car.
