the wheel itself is quite nice. if the 20" is 22.5lbs i'd love to see what the 18" or 19" weigh. personally i dont mind the big wheel look but 19" is the max i care for. and u better have some smooth roads where u live. every car i see with 20" the car looking incredibly out of proportion. there's so little tire and sooo much wheel that it looks like its overpowering the wheel well, if u even understand what i'm trying to say. on suvs 20" works. 26" doesnt but somehow people still do it.
now can u find out if this wheel comes in 18 and the offset and weight price etc and if the company has any other styles available?

I do not have knowledge of this company making 17-19s for our cars since this new model is an exclusive 20" production according to my wheel distributor. I guess I am lucky about living in South Florida where roads are relatively smooth except for the occasional 'under construction' areas that take decades to fix   . I will look into it anyways and keep you posted...

I get my other car back tomorrow, so the tour will be going into the mechanic on Saturday and probably will be done with headers and tune-up/hand brake fix by nex Wed. It will then go in for Mirko repair and I will probably get it back on Friday. Look out for weekend whoring Next Saturday  .

actually the logo on the wheel matches the logo on this building for stamford sport wheel so i think it is stamford sport. stamford sport wheel its a pdf file go to page 12. the file says that stamford opened a new wheel factory in asia last year.
