I dunno, I'm rather partial to my Ronals.....
I do like the look of those almex, other than the 13x5.5 thing...

YES!

But personally, even though I have the full set of centercaps, I'm going to leave them off. They look meaner in my opinion without them.

Not really looking to sell them, but I could honestly use every little scrape of money I can get.

I'll PM you my price.

Well, not to burst your bubble on $50 wheels, but the Epsilons in the pic I posted are running 600-1k now days used and have been out of production for many years.

For $50, you can get a half assed set of stock+ wheels and you don't want to know what it would cost you if I powdercoated a set of them for you.

Talking buy my Work Ewing Fins wheels!















Same wheels on my friend's car.







Those black w/ polished lips wheels, Work Ewings Fins, are for sale by the way. They have newly polished lips and fresh black centers. My asking price is $800 or best offer.

And here are my sets of Epsilons. Great looking wheels, but too fragile since the metal compound is very soft.









And that's not even half of the list yet... I have too many wheels!
