or do you mean:

not well known brand?

Something about the pics of your rims looks weird to me. Can you tell us what size the rims are and what tire size you went with. It just looks to me like the rims are too wide for the tires. Might be the angle of the photo, but just does not look right. Kinda like what you get when you put a 225/45 on a 9" wide rim. Good looking wheels by the way!!!

yeah, those duty fee's kill alot of Canada prospects. Lately I have had a few clients have us ship the wheels to Buffalo, etc and drive down to pick them up.

I just went to volvo to check these wheels out, and it looked sexy. My gf really wanted it. But with tires, it worked out to be aorund $3000 for the 18's.

Mind telling me where you got yours?

Sorry, correction : Volco not Volvo

Yeah, the guy quoted me $3000 CAD with the cheapest tire ( some Dunlop).

Anyways, I'll keep searching. I found a used set of SLK55 AMG wheels, but it's not too appealing to my girl.
