not sure what the face palm means I like them, got them for a ridiculous deal because obviously these don;t fit on Porsche's and for the purpose they are being used they are an excellent wheel for street/drag and track use a civic owner isnt going to put them on their car. If you have no faith, look into Champion Motorsports who imported them they are one of the top Porsche builders in Florida, they dont import low quality stuff.

I think he's saying the "visually" there isn't anything special about them. The weight is where it's at. That's my take as well.

Yea its cool just have to defend them a little, again I am not into flashy just like subtle with the silver. I dont really have exterior mods so it flows well with the car. I like a stealthier look.

Yea there are a lot of haters here too though, honestly I have dealt with TTP for all my tuning needs but I buy from all vendors in the FL area and like them all. I think everyone brings something good to the table and they all have some sick cars!! Oh I would never pay 3k for the wheels I got them at cost because they were in the warehouse for 3 years they forgot about them haha.

They dont sell stuff for evos and they dont sell these offsets or use them. The only reason my friend knew about the sets was he worked for Forge at the time and told me to just wing it and ask them if they had the second set. Its whatever I expect some people not to like them

Are they really that rare? They are just epsilon and you can find TONS of other epsilons on vwvortex and wheel-******.com.

it's not the looks (they are kinda plain) but wheels this light in this size are definitely noteworthy

I dont know what epsilon wheels are so feel free to school me, figured I would throw out some pictures of my friends Evo with the only other set imported by Champion before he wrecked his. It doesnt really look like it in the pics but I know he was lowered on Espilir springs at some point. All of you are right they are light and of course they are not eye candy but honestly my evo was bought for 3 things, for me to love, to go fast and to handle well and these meet my needs:
