yeah, looks like they are the same. 
i emailed them when i was looking for wheels and asked how come they charge double the shipping cost as eurotech, and they were very rude, so i said forget it, i dont want to do business with someone that tries to rip me off on shipping. o well. 
im happy w my wheels tho, so i dont really care.

DJ did you run 275/40/18 for a specific reason?  Was 265 small?
 
I woudn't mind running those wheels but I'd want to use 265/35/18 in the rear instead of 275/40/18.
 
How have the wheels held up for you?

			I have the 275/40/18 on mine and I should have gone w/the 35's. If I hit a bump not even hard it scrapes the wheel well. Doesn't do any damage, but drive me freakin' nuts!!  I'm running the 18" rims from a 05' boxster s btw. I'll post a pic tomorrow...too lazy tonight.

			18" Turbo look wheels:  How do I know how wide my wheels are ?  How do I know if I have the 7.5" fronts and 9' rears, or the  9" Front / 10" rears?  Can I just slide a tapemeasure in there?
