I want those, really bad :spin:. KW v2 is on the way.. I know there are thousands options of multi-spoke wheels, but none of those don't look so good as those.

Those are Sportec Mono 10 wheels. Sportec is actually a VAG (VW, Audi, Skoda, Seat) and Porsche tuner. I was thinking about those wheels for my old R32 several years ago. It would also explain the reason that the wheels stick out beyond the fender, since they have an offset of either 30 or 35. You can see this in the last picture - the tires are rather stretched and barely fit into the fender and the wheels are still sticking way out beyond the sidewall. That's asking for trouble under suspension compression.

 

Nice looking wheels, but heavy as hell. If I remember correctly, they were just under the 30 lbs range for 18".

Sportec actually has an Asian division of their company that offer these wheels in different finishes with Suby friendly offsets of +48 and +50. I looked at getting these for my 07 FSXT. I was even running a group buy for them through a US vendor. The specs for the wheels I was looking at were 18x7.5, 5x100, +48, at 21lbs a piece.
