I didnt even ask what fitments he was going to send. I just told them I needed some samples of the Turismo and the the V-Star. Will see what they send.

Are you looking for new wheels again?

I'm always looking..

Weight savings is my primary goal but looks is a close second and although I like my Mesh 8s, I still want to save more weight. WheelExperts recently released their B9 Technic wheel that's less than 20lbs for a 20" wheel but I'm not to thrilled about the design. Might wait to see if they come out with other models and may do another swap. I've always liked the Neez QD7 but they're so pricy and in some respect, look too similar to an OEM design like the CSL wheels and I want something a bit more unique.

Yes I'm crazy.

Well based on the econony and looming wedding I dont think it is the best thing to spend 4K+ on wheels but these stoke wheels as killing me so I am considering this because I can get them for 1400.



any thoughts on these?

$1,400 is a pretty decent price, if it includes shipping.

As for the style, I personally think the Beyern Mesh looks nicer.

As for the brand, Beyern is made by TSW. They are one of the older wheel companies. Good products at reasonable prices. This is one of the only single piece, cast wheels I can think of that will come in a 22x9 and 22x11 setup. With the Beyern's, you dont need any spacers or hub rings. They will also accept the OEM center caps.

I personally think that both those wheels would do good as a temporary solution. If you want to be extremely happy, and only have to do it one time, just get the Vellano wheels.

Here are some pics of the Beyern wheels

The wheels on the white car are the Vellano VSQ

Price depends on size and finish.

MSRP for the 22" in base finishes is $1,925 . My price, alot better.
