Anyone heard of Kyowa rims

Seeing as I just curbed 2 of my rims today, I was looking at some aftermarket rims and ran across Kyowa. I've never heard of them before. Just wondering if anyone has heard of them or had an experience with them. At the bottom is a link to the one's I found. Let me know if you like them and if you think they would look good on a black ss/sc

I have the Kyowa 228's in black on my car right now...great lightweight rim, never had any problems so far...I think Gsoccer or something has those rims in the link you posted.

wife has them and they seem to be holding up great. just make sure you get the right bolt pattern and dont have them drilled custom.hers are custom drilled for her grand am gt and they stick to the hub alot.

Which one's are you going to get? I think i've made up my mind and i'm just gonna get the 206's instead of getting the 2 stock one's I need. Anyone know the weight on the kyowa 206's? I can't find it anywhere
