Anyone have or seen the Dronell Type-1 or Type-MU on a GS400? Are these considered quality wheels? I was just quoted $3800 for the silver w/polished lip Type-1 in 19x8.5f, 19x9.5r w/Yokahama AVS sports 245f and 275r. It was from Discount tire, I didnt haggle or anything, this was just the price that the guy spit out on the phone. Anyone with a better connection for these rims? Thanks, Tiny

T,

quality: good,

design: too generic, lack of original idea...esp. when i spend that kind of money, i would not prefer people make ignorant comments as "they look like hamman....dude "

but if your REALLY like them, as i said, the quality is not bad as theyare from good name japanese factory.

Hahahahahah, that is too funny. I was actually loving them because they looked like the Hamman that is common on alot of the POS bimmers....I love that wheel, I do see your point about being generic though. I tend to lean towards the simple looking rims, I get scared that if I purchase really exotic looking wheels they wont be timeless....in two years I might feel like a ghetto bird..hahaha Do you know any distributors that might possibly beat the Discount tire price I got? Thanks, Tiny
