Have seen them before and they do look stunning.
How's the quality, price, weight (as light as the name suggests?)?

In Hampshire m8. Wheels were £1050 with nuts tyres etc. Quality is good so far lets see what the good old English weather can throw at them though.

Awesome wheels, but... I need to know this: how do you Classic guys manage to run offsets that deviate so drastically from OEM offsets (+53mm)? Like for example, fatman, those wheels are 18"x7.5" with a +42mm offset. My Scoob has 18"x7.5" wheels, with a +48mm offset (225/40/18 tires) and my rear tires rub on the rear fenders, however I am also lowered almost 2 inches (50mm).... Might that have something to do with it? Its one reason I'm selling my 18s and putting 17s back on.

You are getting rubbing because your tyres are the wrong size for a classic on 18's, you should have 215/35/18's, 225/35 at the most. 40 profile is to big, especially at 225 wide.
I run 18" wheels with a 45mm offset, with 215/35/18 tyres and mine is lowered 30mm. I get no rubbing atall.
