If I ever have to go back to work I'm gonna buy a set of these exact wheels. These T-10s are on the top of my want list ( and I usually don't like shinny stuff).

I was talking to Brian yesterday and he told me what type of Cotton wipes he used. I looked them up - http://www.dickblick.com/zz489/01/

If you search the web even more you can find them for even less money....

I wanted to put this out there for people, but I wasn't sure how to post my own topic or where to post it. We have found out that someone is trying to sell our wheels on ebay as CFCW and the price is outrageous. The pictures are directly from our site and we did not give permission to this person to use these pictures. If your car is pictured maybe you can send something to ebay. Please pass this info on to others that may ask. I believe this is some sort of scam and I would hate any of our customers to be duped.
