Ill agree also, they do look better than the forgestar but not 1000k better. If i was paying 2500 id just get a set of Volk TE's and call it a day :0....

You'd have to be insane to pay that much for a chinese cast wheel. Save yourself the money and get yourself some Linea Corse, Forgestar, Concept One or Cordon.

Damn, $2500 retail is too much for me too, If they retailed at $1999 I'd go for it. I forgot what I pay for Vossens off of retail, but at 2k retail they would be worth it.

Glad most of you like them. Prices are still not a 100%, but pretty accurate.

Will the CV3 come with a chrome-look lip?

Damn, these wheels had LOTS of potential for me until I looked carefully at the spokes. The width of the spoke is the same from center to rim, and the centers are just too plain jane.

Forgestar's CF5s have a much better design for the ubiquitous 5-spokes, although they are lacking in the concavity department.

And can someone confirm that these are cast? If so, .......what the hell?

At $2500.... & if they are in fact cast wheels.... Then this gives me great sadness.

I have a good feeling we may be able to get these around the 2k mark
