I got mine from Andy Lund at Bav Auto. I forget the price but they were very reasonable. Plus the service is great! I can't wait to get those bad boys on.

ha, so they are new! man im jealous, i wish my wheels looked that nice, the clear coat is coming off of the rears from tire chains:o . one not of advise.....dont use ALOT of brake dust remover spray (if you use it at all), it makes the clear coat turn a milky color and then you have to re-polish the rims, just my 2-cents.

forgot to ask: what size tires are you running?

2 of the rims are new. I do have some clear coat pealing on one of them. I'm thinking of stripping the clear coat on the 2 used rims and polishing the lips. Thanks for the advice on wheel cleaners. Maybe I'll just use some diluted Simple Green to clean them.

Tires are 205-55-15
