After inspecting them more (first in Columbus, and now after SEMA) they are a very well done wheel, and well thought out... everything you would expect from Billet Specialties really. The ARP hardware is actually threaded into the center, and countersunk. The center of the spokes are nicely machined and because of the deep machining, the wheels are light. And the cap is just plain cool. I like the "Patiot" and the "Draft" myself. And of course, you get the superior polish, and finished product that you'd expect from every Billet Specialties wheel....and the kicker of course... predictable build times.

I also like that one. But I can not imagine trying to keep them clean on a street driven car with all of that hardware.
