Nope.
How about "Mystery Fuchs";)

A set left the factory on Friday. We expect them any time now. The wheels have passed strength/load/impact testing. (A huge victory)

We had a bit of rubbing on the first set, so the offsets have been tweaked. If this set passes our fitment test, full production will begin immediately.

Whoo Hoo! Thanks for the update Mark! Can't wait to get mine!

Where do you live Kevin?

The set I saw today looked fantastic, but the paint wasn't just right. We expect a set of RSR-look wheels in a week. We'll have pictures up ithen.

If the fitment and paint are up to standard, full scale production will begin.

Getting this just right is not a simple task, but things are going really well.

Moses I am im in mishawaka Indiana which you will know as Notre Dame college or near chicago (Tire Rack). I do have a shipping account and will help in anyway i can, digital pictures or what ever and will pay for the wheels. i really have not followed what finishes are what, i guess that does not matter, i also have a tire machine and deal with custom wheels daily. here is a picture of my 3.6 hot rod.
