I am going to say NAY
But honestly that's just my opinion. Everyone's tastes are different. If you like them you should get them

Are they limited edition because very few people actually want to buy them? Because then that would make sense. Oh yeah, I say Nay.

I'll be a Naysayer. While looks are subjective, being "limited" may be an issue if you need to replace one. Understand wheels go out of style and discontinued, but with more popular choices, it "may" be easier to find a replacement should the need arise.

Thanks guys for all the honest replies, lol.
I am going to get these wheels tomorrow, as an even exchange for my XO Miami wheels. I have a new 3 piece set on order, that will be ready hopefully in the next 2-3 weeks...so until than, i will be sporting the new XO Barcelona wheels.These are identical copies of ADV1 7.0 MV2 3 piece wheel.

Wheels are on. I am surprisingly happy with the look. Pictures don't do them justice, they look so much better in person. Will take better pics tomorrow.

I think the XO Miami's in black would have made the red calipers pop out more. Plus i like how they allowed you to really see the caliper. But all that matters is you like them.

I actually think they look good. Very unique! Are they real 3pcs or replicas?
I'm surprised this design allowed some calipers clearance... they must be 20's , right? I bet 19's will hit the calipers.

They are 20's(8.5 and 10)and they are 1 piece, but with real bolts/rivets that gives it a 3 piece look...you are right, there is no way to do 19"s with this style wheel. I was able to squeeze my 285 Pirelli's in the rear with a
50 ET...yes 50 offset and no rubbing, nothing touches and today we were 3 in the car(my 8 year old son was in the back) and nothing rubbed. Maybe it's the tires (Pirellis run small) but i love the look. Wheels are more flush, it looks more aggressive. I like these wheels,but today i was at a local track event and Strasse Wheels was there and i got to see my upcoming wheels on a CLS and i can't wait to get them...hopefully no more than 2 more weeks or so.
