Spoons are aluminum. If they were Magnesium they would be about $600-700 a rim.

Spoons are magnesium because Super Street said they were!!

But seriously, they are aluminum. The ones that go for $375 and $485 for a 15 and 16" wheel respectively. If I'm wrong, I'll sell mine for a Happy Meal.

When I was in HK a year and a half ago, I saw a set of "Spoom" wheels... they were silver and had "Spoom" in blue on one of the spokes and were made in the Philippines. Has anyone seen these wheels on American shores?
