Default Avid av-10 wheels ?

I need a new set of wheels
anyone heard of these before?

they look really nice and i think would look great on the isx50 however they are cheap, online you can buy for about $872 and locally there is a wheel shop selling them for $600
hardly found any info on them and couldnt find any pics of these installed on anyones rides

bad idea???????

those look like Work Emotion CR-Kai's/CR-Kiwami's - but Work Wheels only offer them in 18's.

digging a little deeper, it looks like Avid.1 is just another replica wheel company:

i see the Volk Racing TE and CE designs, as well as the CR-Kai's/-Kiwami's.

(if you're interested in a legit set of CR-Kai's, i've got a set for sale in the wheels/tires classified section.)

The price of the wheels reflect on the quality of the wheels imo. That's why there's a saying in Chinese, buy cheap stuff, no good stuff. That was a direct translation, lol. Bad grammar.

As for the company, I wouldn't trust it. I mean, what reputable company would post on craigslist in order to make a sale? I just never seen one.
