Those are a work of art! My factory gloss black GS wheels are in perfect condition, but will be getting Forgeline wheels as soon as I save my pennies up to get them. Of what I have read/researched, they are about the best you can get.

Great looking wheel! If/when my stock wheels get bent/cracked they will most likely be my replacements.

Gerry is the man. Got my VX1Rs a couple weeks back and tires just mounted a couple days ago. Next step is ceramic coat and then install them.
