Don't get me wrong. I like Bremmer look, but I just can't live with the name and questionable chinese wheels. That is just me.
It is a tough question when you ask a girl why she is buying LV but not Coach. Stuff like that.

Branded wheels bent and crack too. I dont think you could say 400 for real ones. None of these are fakes. They are real wheels. It is the brand and color that you are willing to spend.

Id get varrstoen if I have enough money to drop on another set of wheels.
Don't get me wrong, I'm in it for the looks too. But if it's just looks, its hard to overlook wheels that you could have two sets of versus one. Enkei is obviously the more prestigious brand, I'll give you that. But not everything Chinese is bad, Apple products anyone? The computer you're using to browse these forums? There's no bad rap on Bremmers yet.

Also, I think they might be Korean. Hyundai, LG, Samsung?

But the gunmetal finish is too good to pass up. They look diff from grams and br10. I love enkei hypersilver finish. Really love the finish. I was going to get silver grams initially.

if you think about it, these are nothing really super new from enkei considering they have been offering the gtc-01 for a while, which is similar to these minus the concave

The one on the wall with the concave face was the +15 5x114.3 we were told. I don't see the +45 option for us being very concave faced.

Damn with all the 86's on the floor and the parking lot and a best spocom award 2 years straight, why aren't Japanese companies making more rims in sizes we want? They're just leaving the door open even wider for Taiwanese (and everybody else) knockoffs to come in with the same design in more aggressive fitments for half the cost. I'm no fan of knockoffs but if theres only one company making exactly what you want, first its a no brainer, and second I dont even know if its accurate to call something a knockoff if only one company is offering exactly what youre looking for.

Crap, I kind of like these a lot. I wish they came in black though. I'm thinking black looks better on Hot Lava. I wonder if 17x9 is a waste on a DD? I've researched other 17x9 wheels and it looks like they fit without issues?
