Are these the ones with the chrome rim?

If so, beware.

had a set of these and they suffered from corrosion on the chrome (known fault)

Managed to get them replaced under warranty

I had some too, they look nice when new but mine also suffered from corrosion on the outer polished part of the wheel.

They're also pretty heavy.

I would avoid them if I was you.
