Default It has arrived...Weds Kranze Cerberus II...

Well folks...the Kranze's are finally here...as far as I know, the first and only set in the United States...

The first set to come off the boat is a set of 19x8.5 and 19x10 SBC (Super Bright Chrome...I think that's what it stands for).

This is one of the few wheels I would do in chrome because the design is so clean...

Anyways, I already have a few of you guys that are serious about buying these wheels...this set is going to be offered to the first person on the list...if they don't want it, I will move to the next...

I know people will ask "how much"...well these wheels retail for $2940 in silver and $3217 in SBC. That's at "bank" exchange rates...the current FOREX rate is 121...you and I will not get rate no matter what...so don't do the math using that number...

Anyways, that price does NOT including shipping, taxes (in Japan and at Customs), freight foward fees, etc...just giving you a basic rundown...if you can afford wheels at those prices and you want these, shoot me an email at GS430@mac.com.

Here is a shot of the front wheel...high disk (so small lip) to clear big brakes...I'm going to just test fit these (no tires) on my GS to see if they will clear the AP Racing 6-piston kit...

Note: the blue lip is just a protective tape so the lips don't get scratched during shipping...the "Designed by Weds" on the lip is a decal that's on the lip...not on the tape.

Also, I apologize for the watermarks but there are some rather retarded people that like to steal other people's images and then use them for personal gain and then take credit for the photo...loosers...

Ok, this last one was just for fun...

I decided to take some household items and put them on the lip so you can see how deep the lip is...

What, no glock 20 clips around?

Those are some sweet wheels, is 19" the max? I thought for a second that those CHROME wheels may end up on your car.

Hmmm...wonder why JPA could see them?

Anyways, I changed a setting on that folder...try it again...let me know if you still can't see it...

Once the ClubLexus Gallery is fixed, I will upload it there and relink everything...if need be...

Here's a couple of other photos I forgot...everyone should see these...it's off the CL Picture Gallery...

Proof that they're authentic...no knock-off crap here!




And the BEAUTIFUL centercaps...the detail is amazing...



(note, these are the "standard" centercaps...not the "Eventers")


Erick - They only make them up to 19" The camera is a Canon Powershot S40 (in manual mode, no flash, used a tripod)

For those of you who can't see it, here is a direct link to my Yahoo! picture album (until the CL Picture Gallery gets fixed)

http://photos.yahoo.com/gs430_01

Click on the "Cerberus II" folder and you should see the thumnails...then just click on the photos...you can click on them again for the "high res" version (but I think you need to be a member...not sure)
