Default 18" real 2010 GT500 wheels cheap on eBay

i know these aren't the 19" forged wheels from the coupe, but if you can live with the case 18" vert wheels this place has them seriously cheap:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/FACTO...item35a8618287

That's $795 for a set of four, yesterday he had 2 auctions that were offering them with tires and TMPS for $1395. Can any of you guys running the 19" versions confirm if these are the same visually as the 19" version? I haven;t seen any up close, i thought they were all the gunmetal or bronze color but these appear to have a machined face.

W tires auction:

Thats not seriously cheap.
Anything over $100 per wheel for OEM take-offs is a rip-off....

Oh, yea, the auction states new but see the little yellow
stickers on the rim edges, those are factory applied AFTER
the tires are installed. Nice try, but no cigar...

I saw these wheels on EBAY, and I am no expert, but something isn't right. The center caps are not supposed to have cobra symbols, but rather "SVT". Also notice nowhere in his EBAY ad does he mention "forged".

Only the 19" wheels are forged, they come on teh coupe. The 18" wheels are cast and you can get them with cobra's or SVT caps it says. I can't speak to their quality, but they look liek the real wheels some of teh guys around here have.

This would explain the more reasonable pricing, but not exactly "cheap" for a cast wheel. Of course.....a much better deal than a 'peeling' chrome wheel.......

They are cheap compared to the 1000 per wheel a dealer would want
