Fittipaldi rims...what do you think

What's your opinion of the Fittipaldi Force rims manufactured by Enkei.
How much would you pay for these?
They are 18x8.5 rims with Falken Azenis ST115 tires size 235/40/18 all new?

Let me ask again, do you like them or not guys? If you do like the wheels and the tires, how much would you be willing to pay. I feel like I'm asking a group of politicians that won't give a straight answer, very simple guys.

We are a group of politians!

They are not bbbaaaddd looking wheels, but would not give a huge hunk for them. I am not a fan of the brand name and they look kinda cheap in my eyes. Brand new...with tires....just based off of what I know....18 maybe

it should be more of "DO YOU LIKE THEM" it doesnt matter what we think, if your buying them, they will be on your car, and we will probably never see the car

You're absolutely right. My wife could careless. The scratched up wheels currently on the car look as good to her as new ones. She says, "why do you need you wheels, yours look just fine." Then again, she buys 10 different black outfits that all look alike. Just kidding honey, I love my wife.
