We've had those specs for quite some time. I'm curious to know how he ordered 'em from CCW. They don't like to make wheels to a customers specs. The like to do their own thing.

I asked him how he got them, he said he had to "ask nicely " I asked him how much it cost to ask nicely and he didn't answer.

Ok so upon close inspection the Grids have a slightly more rounded/thicker spoke and are missing the extra little step in the lip and are more concaved...other then that they're damn near identical:

He works for CCW. He said he took some scrap inners and outers and put them together until he had something he liked. And this is the first time I've ever seen them posted, since he said that he wasnt even actually sure. Everyone knew the size, but afaik noone knew the actual offsets and backspacing or centers.

They are more concaved becuase they spokes come out further. Instead of a nimble looking wheel like the TE they look over weight or bloated....

It's whatever really. Te's still rock, Rota still sucks ass... nothing has changed.
