A while ago Compomotive were the v'best when then had control of the foundry, now they appear to be a branded wheel supplier with their wheels being made in asia or similar locations. I have an original set of comp foundry TH3 wheels from my old IX GT and had later purchased a set of new TH3s for a different car, the later set where from overseas and had the wheel stud holes cut slightly off centre so there was radial runout on the rim edge on one of the wheels ,noticeable at higher speeds as a wheel imbalance. The "genuine" TH3s were also made with a machined to fit the car hub specific center bore so no spigot rings were needed, the laters were just a generic center bore size and spigot rings to size down used. Whilst this is probably no different to nearly all the other after market wheel brands it does meant the previous good reputation of Compomotive is no longer what it used to be and therefore consider this when buying. They may still do some bespoke competition wheels but the TH3s I bought 2nd time around weren't that product.
