    I want my piece of crap to look like your E30, those Compomotives are the best looking wheels I've seen.

        They will make any wheel in thier line-up -PROVIDED- that they have a large enough order/demand. Late last year I ordered a set of TH1780's for the M3, only to have my money returned as they were out of stock didn't have enough demand for them in thier low-ET fittment style (anything over ET27 uses a different mold, I learned). I think JackBenny's set was from a previous lot. Such is my luck, maybe in the future they'll bring 'em back...

          We should try to get a group buy together for some 16x8 TH1s with the proper offset :D

          I'd be first in line to put down a deposit!

          * edit: I'm taking to a sales guy from 1552 about a group buy, I might be starting a thread in the Group Buy section about it depending on what he says :)

            Good. But I want TH2s. When is 1552 getting these out the door?

              Not sure, he said that they only make the Th1 & Th2 16" versions a couple times a year because they're not the most popular design. when he responds to my email I'll ask him about a potential group buy for BOTH designs together, and then I'll start a thread somewhere to gauge interest.

                Thank you very much. I like both styles. These could make me hold out for a wheel purchase. Please keep us updated. Has a price even been mentioned?

                    Meh, not the cheapest but right there at the sweet spot for good wheels.Im still down if there is a time when this might happen; I dont think I can hold out otherwise....though my bottlecaps have brandy-new tires,

                        I'm running 3mm spacers in the front (massive brakes necessitate it) and 1.5mm in the back. 235 wide tires but will probably ditch the spacers and go to 245s when I were these out.
