VW Paradise in San Marcos, CA has them in their showroom. We saw them (BTR Wheels) during our Lone Pine (extended) trip. They looked really nice, but pricy. By the way, the box said they were made in China! Tom

Yes they are made in Taiwan by Jimmie Smith's company Ultra wheels. Same people that brought you the original Ultra wheels for off road racing VW's and the Robby Gordon wheel.
