Looks nice in silver, but a little busier than the Gettin in chrome. Nice wheel though

lexk..

not trying to dispute you ..but based on my experience here in the USA, one usually do not get the 'published exchange rate" when he/she goes into the bank and try to buy yen..ie, recent LA times published 1U$D to ~109 Yen..i usually get ~100-102 yen per 1 USD..reason, the bank wants to make $$ of you

Kutscher..most likely these wheels need to be imported provately...so, to make it easy to know the price in U$D, simply take the japanese published price and divide-by 100. if you look at few tuner sites in both English and japanese and compare, you will see most of time it is like this:

ie, list price, JP Yen - 90,000 each, U$D, 900 each
