i got a price a price for the C10 wheels . They are custom CNC'd for your specific car , that is why they fit so perfectly. 3,100 in satin black plus shipping and tires , OUCH ! that would be 25% of the value of my car!

Personally, I don't like the look of mesh wheels. I prefer the look of their Zehn wheel much more .

The zehns are one of my choices . I like that they are not that pricey .

I'm probably in the minority, but I don't like over sized cart wheels on a Boxster (or any other car for that matter).
The last couple of years there is a tendency to go bigger and bigger on the wheels. Imho, the only thing it is doing is increasing the price of wheels/tires, decreasing the ride comfort and putting too much strain on the axles etc. Why do all cars have to look like pimp-mobiles?

Its a great looking wheel for sure. And for the price, I imagine that they're reasonably well made. Although, the sizes and offsets could be better . In any case, I think that the Zehn would be a good choice for the money.
