How much would each of us have to pay for the rims in a group buy?

Someone told me they bought a set of Lorinsers for $1600 + shipping from EUR = $2000.
Our cars are cute but they are not 130+mph race cars, so the wheels only need to look good but don't need to perform like it is on the autobahn. In the last 10 years, I have done 180+mph with a couple of cars and a motorcycle - and THAT is when you need to spend the big money.
Until the market starts making more wheels for our car, I think it might be best to get 3-to-5 lug adapters and buy a great looking set of 17's w/ tires for only $600 on EBAY. You will save over $1000 and still be original at the same time.

Like Cruising N Coasting said, just buy some Momo (or other brand) wheels for $550-$600 and get an adapter.

And besides, tons of people are going for the Lorinser Speedys.
