When I knock on them with one finger, the vibration goes from one end to another with a 'ding' sound identical to glassware lol

$8,000 later, they are an excellent choice of wheels for the parking lot. Or- Unless you are cracking rich then rolling them at high speed on today's roads is also no problem

The set available at the time in PCD130 was original gunmetal as below. Just to kill that girl red car look I had them professionally powder coated in gloss black. Finally the wife hates them. Another very successful mod
