dutchman helped me order them from a company in Japan. Last I knew they were never available in the US.

Shipping was pretty extreme.

Doesn't look like the company that dealt the wheels to the company I bought them from is still around. I wouldn't know where to find them now.

It's no problem to find them over here, as a matter of fact I can buy them next door, they are around $300,- maybe a little cheaper. Like Dave said, they're awsome, but pricey when it comes to shipping. In case of Dave, he bought them through shuei and they only send by air, I might be able to send them by surface, which will make it a little cheaper but sloooooooow!
Let me know!

Is it the same OZ Crono Evo that Tire Rack stocks just in black or is it a totally different wheel?

Same style, different wheel. That's the "O.Z. Crono Evolution," mine is the "O.Z. Crono 4x4." Difference being the sizes available, hub size, bolt patterns, etc.

The Evolution is a restyle of the old Crono for cars, and the Crono 4x4 is the older design.

I looked all over the US for the Crono 4x4, and the reality is that O.Z. never imported that wheel. A O.Z. rep told me so. Dealers were not interested. Tire Rack does sell O.Z. 4x4 wheels...Vela and Nova, IIRC. You won't find the Crono 4x4 on the O.Z. US site, either: http://www.ozwheels.com

Believe me when I say I researched this, and believe me when I say shipping was extreme. :)
