Anyone heard anything about these. I like the look, and have probably even posted this before, but at $549.97, shipped....damn.

Ridiculous price. Can you find out how much they weigh... that would influence my vote. For that price though, I like.

I like them. The price is awesome!

IMO. They look like BBS LM inspired wheels, with some changes.. The spokes look a bit bigger, and the lip is different.

From my good fellow James at ECSTuning:

"Dane,
I actually had the Miro 380s scaled a few days ago.

18x8 - 23.05lbs
18x9 - 24.15lbs

Also some info you can share with the ZHP family. The sale on the Miro 380s will end when our stock is gone. As of this morning (1/29/13) a grand total of 5 sets are still available. When we sell the last of our stock this wheel will become very very hard to find new as Miro has chosen to discontinue the 380.

-James"

Not exactly light, but better than 135's inho.

Yup, better weight than 135s. I'm a gonna vote yes. Can't beat that price and they look good. I'm even tempted, but I'd hate to crumble my chrome empire of 8 chromed 135s. I've got the market cornered, lol.

Looking for the 380's I ran across these pics of the Miro style 111's.

First, I love the look. Are these for the ZHP or Mini/future Mini?

The price is fantastic, I wonder what the quality is like? Are they cast or forged

I busted a laugh! :rofl

The rims in this thread were basically just a heads up to all that they are on sale. That's all.

I do like how they look but I'd go 9" all around. I'm just not a fan of staggered setups, unless I'm driving a 911, M Coupe or newer Vette.
