Rpm wheels?

My stepdad is looking for some wheels for his z3. He found some rpm wheels but neither one of us has heard of the brand and we were wondering if anyone has some or could give us some info on how reputable the company is. Thanks.

Maybe they were Centerline RPM wheels? They are rotary forged and are very strong and lightweight.

I think there's a brand like RPM motoring or something to the effect, they're garbage.
As far as wheels go, there's the Centerline RPM and the Enkei RPM2... both of which are good wheels.
I'm of the camp that if you've got a $40K car, you should be putting some decient wheels on it. No knockoffs, get the name brand good ****. Wheels make or break a car, cheap wheels on an expensive car are an abomination.

I agree, they are very nice, very strong, but also very expensive. I think they are like $300/wheel.

The ones on my car are 5zigen Fighters.
