Similar question to my previous thread regarding Rial wheels...

Anyone with opinions or experience please reply. I'm especially interested in learning more about the offset and how well the wheel wells fill out with these wheels.

I have a set of their rims, I use them for snows now. Forged, TUV approved, but heavy, really heavy. Offsets are a little unusual, but work. I needed 5mm spacers to clear my big red brakes.
The pros are costs, the cons are wt and the hassle factor. FWIW, they were rediculous at the track, the car really didn't like the added wt.
