Yeah they're not too expensive, at least there's a dealer that would be ~$800 for a set of 2.2.2's. Still $800 but more manageable.

Gotcha, I wasn't sure if it was clear or if it was just a highlight. I'm working on some for my '08+ headlights. Almost done.

Raderwerks is a very strong wheel and company. They've been around for a bit. A lot of VW and Subies run them. Actually most of the trends from what I've seen in the past couple of years started from the VW guys. Take Chevlons for example. Hard core VW wheels in the 90's then all of a sudden Hondas and xB1's started running them in the mid to late 2000's. Just because shops haven't heard of them doesn't mean anything to me. Not saying that those shops aren't reputable but people go with what they like or know so that's who they market. Just some food for thought. Scion Jon has been running them for a long time.

No problem. It's hard to do research when people that don't know like to hear themselves talk sometimes. So sometimes you get misinformed. If you go on the actual website for Raderwerks you'll see that they have wheels going beyond $1300 for a 3 piece wheel. Just remember I have friends who broke Volk TE37's because of actually time attacking them or road racing them. But you also hear about all the sponsored cars that run Rota wheels with no problems whatsoever. It's all in what you do and how you do as well.

yea im starting to notice that. and thats one of the things that was confusing me because they had the 3 piece going for a big chunk of change. and your right all rims are breakable you just have to see which ones can handle the most. i have a feeling they would be alright i just have to be extra careful this time

I can understand how you guys like the wide/poked look but I definitely cant see how you can roll around with those beat ___ fenders! i would rather have sunk wheels then fenders that look like that!!

Somewhat agree:

Full turning radius, + no rub is awesome. I don't mind my factory wheels being in the fender form of quick sand :D
