                Indeed, they were 1,200$, with shipping I paid 1,600,
                But with the custom paintwork and tires I'm near 3k

                      Wait, so let me get this straight. You paid like 2k for just paint work on wheels? Did they at least use lube or go in dry?

                      Jesus man. I could re-paint a car for 2k. Car doesn't look bad though.

                        Oups, miss typed the price XD
                        In fact, the wheelset was 3k not 4k, and its mostly because of the customs fees from USA to Canada

                        I paid 600$ for the candy purple powdercoat tho.

                        Thanks
