Anyone have JLine Whels?

I was wondering if anyone has or has had JLine wheels. And what they thought of them. Would you recommend them? Good for performance?

I've been looking at the SDMsl2's.

Here's their wheel models... http://www.jlinewheels.com/models.html

They look nice, but for the price I'd probably go for something else.

Agreed, BBS LM or GT, Siena Generation II, CCW Classic, hell you are almost in Fikse FM-10 territory.

Jline I heard are made by Iforge, the copycats of HRE's. After seeing this picture of the SDM on an audi, I starting looking at other wheels.

So DTM Kreuz Wheels is the company that was sold and that owner produced this new brand of Jline wheels to appeal to a more Japan Style market, hence the Jline from what I gather.

Iforged, Kinesis, HRE, and Jline are all located in SoCal. I'm sure that several of them share common parts or factories. There can't be that many forging manufacturers in SoCal.

I've seen the Jline wheels in person, I'm not a fan of brushed look on any wheel except the Diamond Cut from Fikse which is awesome. But in painted or powdercoated or even anodized finish the Jline wheels look very very nice. Hope that helps a little bit.
