Group Buy: 19inch replica wheels...any interest?

There are four choices to vote on. If you guys are interested we'll need 10 people to get this going for the STAGGERED (19x8.5 19x9.5) set or 5 people for the NON-STAGGERED (19x8.5 or 8 all around). The price will be $799 shipped to 50 states. This price is for this group buy only directly from the factory. We'll be taking deposit of $150 once we can confirm the group-buy is happening. Production will take roughly 60 days and overseas container 21 days to us before we can ship them out. Once we got them it'll arrive at your door in less than a week by UPS.

there are different color choices such as silver, hyper-silver, black w/ polish lips, chrome, polished, and maybe machine/brush finish. However all group buy member has to agree on 1 color and 1 choice of wheels in order for us to push out the order at this low price.

now the choices

1/16 style (staggered set will have staggered lip)


mono 6 (unfortunately this staggered set does not have staggered lip)


LM6 style (staggered lips about .5-1" lip in the rear)


AMG dual-spoke (staggered lips TSW bremma)

Where are these being purchased from? I'd like to know it is from a reliable company. I'd be up for th 1/16 staggered, but it'll come down to the company.

these are from the same company that supplies TSW, Moven, Axis, etc. further detail cannot be disclosed for the company's privacy issue and their relationship with the mentioned brands.

they are great wheels. I had the LM6 style in 18s for my own car and then I had the Axis Phin which I got directly from them for my car as well. Many people have seen my wheels. You can also as Justin with the C320 coupe how's the quality cuz he bought my LM6 style set.

they are all staggered set up 19x8.5 19x9.5. The Mono 6 does not have staggered lips. The amg style, lm6 and 1/16 all have staggered lips.

Frank! I'm very interested in the 1/16 style staggard! How big is the lip on the rear for the staggard set though? And which color is the silverest of the silvers? lol.. i want it to shine as much as possible without going chrome.. or actually, if it's the same price, i might just go chrome btw, u wouldn't happen to have a pic of the 1/16 in chrome on a car would u? Thanks Frank!

1/16 chrome is really not that great looking. The 1/16 in the pic's a polish look. Shiniest silver is the Hyper-silver. never got a 1/16 in chrome...only the same one as posted by dchou in previous post.
