Those are some sweet looking rims I wanna pick up a set now. Just curious, how's the build quality of them? Does Eurotech make good reps? I've heard a lot of horror stories with replica wheels.

FWIW, the mechanic that fitted the tires thot i paid $4,000.00 for the wheels. he examined them quite carefully. at $495, im not too concerned about how long they last me.

my replica 87s lasted about 3 yrs before they were just too damaged to repair again. if i get 3 yrs out of the 215 reps i'll be a happy camper.

Hmmm...I sent an e-mail parts quote last night. I'm hoping to hear from them by this afternoon. Let me know when you hear from them.

Mine were round and straight - I had the shop spin them before putting tires on them. However, as stated previously, one of the wheels the paint job has some waves in it, but it is only noticeable if you are up close to them.

I just hate they dropped the price on them bc (1) that is less than I paid for them and (2) now more people are going to have a set.

I was enjoying having a unique setup!!
