Any info on RPM rims?

Hi Guys,
I searched the forum high and low and couldn't find any references to RPM rims.
The Dealer here does not carry any aftermarket rims and suggested RPM because a few other owners had told him how much they liked these rims.
The way the deal works is that the Dealer will order the rims on my behalf and at no extra cost (shipping is free), I'm getting a new set of summer tires from the Dealer who will install, balance, align and supply 4 new TPMS sensors. They will mount everything on the car and I'll end up with a complete set of winter tire/rims (original wheels) + the new summer set.
The new rims are slightly wider in the rear (9.5 instead of 9) which will give the car a slightly more aggressive stance.

I would appreciate any comments you may have
Thanks
Dan

After talking with 2 different tire stores I ordered the R508 set through Hyatt Infiniti.
They quoted me $270/rim, 19"/8.5 fronts and 19"/9.5 rear.
Aside from the price, I read so many threads on this forum about guys buying rims on-line and having no end of problems with fitments (Vert sport model) that I prefer to deal with Hyatt. This way I'm guaranteed everything will fit right and work as advertised.
