Pretty fast...there are already knockoffs of GTN but they are 1 piece not 2. I'm sure that there will be a 1 piece knock off soon of these.

Actually there are not that many sets in the US of the GTC and yes they have been out for a bit in Japan....and I know they are not the first set in the US.

But i'm sure you are more knowledgeable being in Utah and that I go drinking with the guys at Mackin I must be wrong.

Hey "rotaryracer" usually shipment applies to more than 4 rims. You can tell if your one of the first because you order your rims and the supplier says "it'll be a bit ..la de da cause we are still making them. Anyways who cares they are still nice rims! And I'd give my proverbial left nut to have them. Nice Rims RotaryKnight!

hmm... and who are you? he said first SHIPMENT, he didn't say he was the first person in the u.s. to have them... and no, they haven't been out for a while now. go ask rishie or go call mackin, they're new... as in first shipment just arrived new.
