I saw Calton yesterday and saw these wheels in the boxes in the back of his truck. They looked awesome and were wrapped up quite impressively. Cant wait to see them on the car as well.

All the best

They are reproductions, but they are made by a company that does OEM wheels for Infiniti and Lexus. Velocity Motoring is the company and all I can say is that these wheels are amazing. The quality and craftmanship is outstanding.

Nice wheels. I have a set on my 330ci and they look great, but be careful of the pot holes. I have already had a cracked and bent wheels. Just keep an eye on air preasure too. make sure is at 40 psi to protect wheel
