You can get the hid set and the lines do not go through the headlamp projector. I have seen those wheels for 2,500 to up 3,500. I think they are so overpriced.

those MFs in the pic i believe are 17s and are usually priced higher than the 16s. but since they are only available used now, it all depends on condition. wheel offset is an important factor in price too.

He speaks the truth.

However if you have $500 you can get immitation ones with the same style but not weight and construction benefits.

Since its one of the most easily damaged parts on a car it seems logical to get the immitation ones

Yep, C10's in bronze, or C8's if you want less spokes.

I just snagged a set of MF10s on ebay for 1700 shipped. They are super clean with centercaps and Toyo Tires. Pics when they get here.

They were 16s

The 16" is somewhere around 11.2 lbs I believe.

Edit: According to http://www.wheelweights.net/ they weigh 11 lbs on the head.

yes, the "Circuit 10", but they have not exactly 100% the same design, there are little differences by the hub ...

They were 16s </TD></TR></TABLE>so you're the one that snagged those! awesome buy i watched and saw the ending bid...a lot of people slept on it. those are the 50 offset correct? would you believe that the difference in offset can be a difference in cost of about $500? i got offered a healthy amount for my used ones a while back...until i revealed that they were 50 offset. then the offer dropped by $500! it makes a huge difference in regards to aftermarket brake caliper clearance and convenience. the 43 offset MFs are GOLD if you can find them...which translates to more green

It looks like the design of the Circuit10 have a little bit changed during the years.
At the off. ROTA-page the Circuit10 look like this picture i have posted, but when you search by Google for "Rota Circuit10" then you get both versions.


... perhaps you have real Mugen Rims with Rota Center-caps

no, i think one is the older and one the newer model.

If i got real MF10's, I got one hell of a deal!!! I wanted real MF10's but they were a lot of my price range. Then i saw the C10's on Bradstard's R and i knew i wanted them.

yea i don't think i would have gotten them if they looked like the C10's in the picture you have, but i need to bronze them asap because brake dust show really bad on white.

You are comparing the 5 lug MF10 design to to a 4 lug Rota C10 (which is almost an exact replica of the MF10L, but not the MF10). The 5 lug Rota C10 is almost identical to the 5 lug MF10.
