    Color me inspired! What size tires you rolling on those? 215/40? Looking good.

    I'll prob be in for 17 in 4x100 at ET20. When you create a group buy thread I'll join.

    Oh I know, I just had that in my head as a point of comparison. I look forward to hearing how this goes.

    We're waiting for some shipping quotes from the factory.
    Once we determine if we can do the wheels for $899 and $849 a set, we'll start a new Group Buy thread.

    Mel, I would recommend starting a new thread for a group buy to weed out the confusion.

    Sorry to disappoint you but they are NOT made in China or the Far East.
    17" Kopis weigh 21 lbs. and 15" Kopis weigh 15 lbs.
    Thanks for your input.
    Did not mean to be an ass, I'm just uninformed on them and neglected to read the OP where you state that you aren't going the Chinese route. I'm comparing them to the APEX ARC-8 wheel, and at 21lbs I think it's a fair debate. However, they are not currently available in silver, so I would likely be in on the Alpina reps at $1k shipped. But damn, 25 sets..

    The 17" x 7.5" and 15" x 6.5" Kopi wheels will also be available in 5 lug, 5 x 120, ET20 and ET35.
    No 18" wheels at this time.

    Very glad to hear progress is being made on these wheels. Other than the original Alpinas...these are hands-down my favorites.

    Just out of curiosity, are there any negotiations for those of use in the 5x120 world? I'd love to get my hands on a set of 4 in 18x8.5 with low offset ;)

    Same supplier as last shipment.
    The quality is as good as BBS.
