Are you sure those are the real deal buddy clubs?

There's a groupbuy going for them, they dont look the same as your pics:

yeah, just a different angle. thats the groupbuy that i will be joining when i purchase these wheels. the lip is different b/c of the offset. im not sure how big the lip will be with a 42 mm offset.

does anyone know how good of quality buddy club wheels are. i know some of their other products are pretty solid...just wondering if the wheels are the same way.

The first pics shown are the 15" wheels. The other pics are either the 17" or the 18" (as to why they don't make them 16" will ever be a mystery). I have a set of the 15" gunmetal wheels and I love them.

sweet. so i take it they are a reasonably strong, reliable wheel? i shouldnt need to worry about bending a wheel or anythign like that, even though i have done it before, but the roads around here aren't too bad as long as you stay away from some construction. i will also be going with the 225 series tire giving me a little more cushion. thanks for the help, i really appreciate it.

I say go with the bronze,.....cause I have the gunmetal
Here's a few pics...
oh and by the way,.. I hit a huge pothole yesterday and that wheel didnt budge. I've been doing almost 80 mph all week through pot holes and sewer covers and no damage to the wheels yet.
