The pleasure is also mine, to see somebody's dream come true is something great!

You're right, but where I am currently living, in Romania. these wheels are very rare, so you can imagine the price here (they are imports)

But, as Frank Sinatra once said, "That's life"

Good luck with your ride.

not sure i would clean them whatever cost they are ,generally wire wheels disappeared because they fell apart

They arent hard to clean in my opinion. What do you mean by fell apart? It just depends how well you keep them up. Ofcoarse if water gets inside of the wheel it will rust from the inside out,ruining the whole wheel if not caught soon. The main issue is people not knowing what theyre doing when putting knockoffs on there car/truck....if you put the adapters on the wrong side of the car, dont tighten the knockoff's all the way,have lug nuts way too big,etc...you set yourself up for wheels that will roll off past you when youre on the highway. So basically it comes down to knowing how to mount them properly, and maintaining the wheel...you dont let the water sit..dry it till you cant dry no more! Just my $0.10 some people i know only change tires never have to change there wire wheels because they take care of them. If you dont theyll rust to a crisp. (unless you have daytons)

on goes the adapters, requires some modifications.




Getting them put on




Custom painted the wheels to match the roof of the car (mettalic blue)
