I bought a set price was right and they have been shipped, looking at the pics on the site I now see a bright silver finish. It also says that these are take offs? does this mean taken off a car or rip off of design. They look like steel instaed of aluminm. Well I guess I need to cross my fingers will see. Sorry but its to late to call Eric and ask. If you have seen the pics whats your take? ARe these the same as other peoples alloys? can they be sprayed in silver frost to match the car and clear coated?

If they don't turn out how you want them to be I am pretty sure that you can get them painted.

I bought the Millie Migle Cellos for $165.00 a rim and they look just like the ST200 rim. I'm not sure what the deal from BAT was but I paid $1310.00 for the tires, wheels and insurance out the door. As far as the bright silver finsh it looks great! You'll like these wheels if you pic em' Sorry now pics as of yet.

"Take offs" are new parts from new cars that
were removed, usually to be replaced with new
and better parts... you will see Saleen sell
"take off" wheels and tires from the GTs they
buy from Ford and immediately replace with an
in-house design... sometimes stock body stuff
like side skirts too.

If they still have any left, I am seriously considering this deal. I was going to buy Cellos, but this price is too good to pass up. When yours come in, TLP, please post your opinion of the wheels. Thanks.
Maybe new rims soon . . .

I cancled my order and took it out on other parts! The deal is $895 bucks for the wheels tyres and about $100 shipping they are mounted and balanced ready to bolt on!
I think the ST-170 will have wheels that are the same as the racing Pumas which are my dream wheels! HAAAAA! Anyways will wait and see, or its Team Dynamics all the way!

Thank you for giving up the tires and wheels. They shipped to my house this morning, and will hopefully be here by the weekend.

But it was too late for me; BAT sold out on the ST200 wheel/tire combination (I called this morning).
Maybe someone (myself included) could convince BAT to have another package deal on the ST200 wheels and 215/45-17 tires in a group buy (with Cougar and Focus owners).
