how good does this thing look...

stolen from 'ratman's thread on afffff

Well, there have been many rumours, innuendo and all the rest but I have just had a good look over the 'new' Simmons wheels out and must say they do look the goods. Before this becomes a slugfest over not being originals and they are being being built in China by so and so, let me say, fom an aesthetic and visual point of view, they are stunning, they seem to be very well made and finished as good as, if not better, than the originals so time will tell if they are built nd engineered as per the previous generation - which I'm told they are. Anyway, enjoy the pics - this is the very first production set in 20 inch - yep, FR20s now, FR22s are also available to order as are the 19s.

soooo you would pay over 4k for rims, only to have them be mistaken for every other black centre rim getting around ?

You forgot that little centre cap that says Simmons.

Check out Tocchi's XR8 with black centred FR's - TOUGH!
