as far as stock rims go, I believe them to be desirable, but not exactly worth a whole bunch of money... Check the vortex and see what other sets are going for.

Look for the passat syncro versions. They are forged and super strong.

And vince says Falkin rubber ;D. I have never heard of such a thing, but you must have a tire company with that name up there? That is funny.
