F1R Wheels

Anybody have any experience with these? A set of F01s came on the market locally for a solid price. They're surprisingly attractive for a rep which typically means it at least has SOME kind of money behind development.

I understand Rota's are about the best of the cheap wheels, and have been eyeing up a couple sets, but if I could get a decent wheel out of F1R's I'd be pretty happy. What say ye?

I asked for some more information on them from the seller... This is a stock photo.

old school style - kind of like the BBS mesh from the 80's. Love it! With correct offset and center bore they will look awesome!

Just hesitant to put some cheap cast wheels on. They're rated at 14 lbs which isn't the lightest. I'm not too fond of the konig's that came with my mini. I love the look of the mesh wheels with simple euro designs.

check for cracks and make sure they balance well. For the right price they might work great for you.
