Are these Mahles well-regarded wheels?
Are Revolutions well-regarded?
Rivieras seem unpopular.


edit: I guess by well-regarged I mean valuable/pricey/rare...
edit^2: I guess by regarged I mean regarded, not regurgitated...

Aaron is right, that is a Mahle wheel. I actually like the Mahles best. I cant stand the Pedrinis.

there are only 3 factory 4-lug alloy wheels (all 3 are 15"x5.5")....

#1 is the Fuchs (forged and one pound lighter)
The Pedrini and Mahle are a tie, it's a personal preferance

Fuchs normally go for about $400 to $500 for a set of 4
the other 2, the price ranges from $200 to $400 per set

of course the price can be higher or lower depending on location and condition


Revolutions are a brand from England, a good quality wheel which are available in different sizes....15x6, 15x7 for sure, and 17x7 (what I have)
