I was going to get the Evolves...and I would have been the first person on here to have them....then I started seeing them pop up everywhere.

They're great looking wheels and those would be my choice. If you ever decide to sell them, you'll at least know of one person in Texas that'll buy them...

Definitely can't go wrong with the Evolves. I really would get those but I found a set of black/red wheels from Konig that I would be more apt to buy.

I always see people posting pics of the evolves basically saying "should I get these?" But has anyone actually got them yet?
I would like to see these on our cars they're very good looking.
