nah.. that was fresh out of the CNC, by now PCD has been done and the wheel has been "finished". I will have assembled pics probably by Thursday.

fair enough, I just hope you don't have any issues like some people I know around here... like multi-piece wheels leaking through the seams..

There are some ADV1 wheels I like, however some of their marketing comes across as immature...

if your lips are chrome, double check the silicone seal before you mount tires...we love the ADV wheels, but had one set leak a tiny bit as the silicone peeled off the chrome...a few minutes with an exacto, some 400 grit, and new silicone...voila
