They are 17inch and retail at 135 to 145 each Not bad pretty decent they weigh at 15-17lb a piece. Very Awesome in weight reduction. They'll look sweet on my White DSM, my two colors are Bronze or gold. But depends on style of the wheel

Has anyone has own this type of wheel and are views about them.

Not bad at all. I an guessing the dual valve stem is prolly because the image is mirrored. The image creator only created half the image and mirrored it to save time. Notice how the top and bottoms are perfectly semetrical with the exception of the lugs?

I know this thread is a bit old, but I wanted to chime in on the dual valve stems just so people know...

Those wheels most likely do have two valve stems especially if they are lightweight wheels meant for motorsports.

When I raced autocross one of my good friends had a set of Kosei's with dual valve stems, the purpose was to purge the tire with nitrogen, which is lighter than air, and supposedly has better characteristics as far as temperature expansion and such.

Sorry about the bump!

Yes that makes sense. The image does not look mirrored to me, as the shadowing is different from the top and bottom halves of the wheel

You can find these at tirerack.com It'll show a picture of the ECLIPSE in different colors and see what they would look like.

Actually bronze/flat black is my rim choice, but I've been reading/looking at different styles and material they're made from.

This gold wheel is made from cast alluminum heavier and weak.

a few bucks more 280 the Motegi Tracklite will be my final decision are Forged and wieght at 14lbs. and 17x7 wheel.

Lock this old thread thanks
