Default Noooooooo!

I've always liked the MOMO Racer Evo1 wheels:


But I always wondered why they were listed as "Not for sale in the US" on MOMO's website.

Well, today I decided I should entertain the thought of buying them... so I emailed MOMO to get a price quote and inquire about the legality of importing these wheels:

Do you know why the Racer Evo 1 wheels are "Not for US market"? They're my
personal fav, and while I would like to have them legally, I'm curious to
why they're not available? Thanks

-Charles


Their response:

In this moment they have been discontinued everywhere.
best regards,
momo

I'd LOVE to, but they were never sold in the US, so that makes it a little more difficult to get them. They sold the Racer wheel, but not the one in the black matte finish... And I've checked eBay, and I found out that MOMO is one of the key words that rice peddlers slap onto all of their shit items
