I too made the trek from Los Angeles to San Diego for my rims purchased at Eurotech. I got it this past January and the owner is pretty cool. Hardworking guy and at that time he wasn't being sued yet so my 168 rims came with caps.

Everything CC said is true. I even had to help him load my rims to my X5 when I went there since he met me at his shop on a rainy saturday when he's supposed to be closed.

The price are definitely a steal. I am not after performance, I am after the look and tiny imperfections don't bother me. What bothers me is someone spending $4000 for OEM rims that get scuffed and bent just like the $500 rims. To each his own and I am happy with mine.

I did the trek after having the worst experience buying from another seller on ebay from Florida (OE Rims or something like that) When I got my rims for my '03 X5 one of them was bent and they gave me the run around and didn't want to send me a new rim. So I bit the bullet and had to fix it myself. That X5 is long gone and lesson learned so this time around, I made sure I bought locally that I can pick up and inspect before paying.
