Anyone running Motegi DPK?

Found a set locally for a decent price, wondering what the lowdown on them is. I've always thought Motegi to be a bit ricey and cheap, but these don't look horrible.

You want to give us some pics to judge?

Though it's not the looks I'm concerned with, I'm more interested in quality. I've not had any Motegi rims in the past, so I'm not sure what to think of them.

Edit: They're 18x8, with offset +40, and of course 5x112 pattern.

They look alright. Wouldn't be my first choice, but not bad. As far as quality goes, I'm not sure. Try a google search.

its like anything really -- in an 18 he might be ok...
dont drive like a moron on them and they should hold up ok. the finish is the big thing to worry about. a friend of mine has had motegi's on his dsm for almost 3 years now - no bends, cracks, chips, flakes, or fading finish.

take care of your car/parts, and it/they will (should) take care of you

Thanks. I think I'm just going to rattle-can the stock 17's until I find something I really want (aside from scratches/gouges inflicted by the previous owner, they don't look that bad).
