Jer,

I didn't realize you had just recently posted to this thread. I just copied the pic Robert originally posted in a similar thread asking about them.

I'm thinking that if/when I finally put my 20" Alcoa's on my car, I may PC my KR wheels black like these.

But people keep asking about them so I brought this thread to the others atten.

We're looking to make them available again soon.

Right now, we're tied up with SEMA, after next week, we'll be back to working on projects, and that one is coming up in the next 30 days or so.
