TRMotorosports MT1 opinions please

I am looking at these wheels. They're 18x8 32ET and 18x9.5 35ET.
They're made by Enkei with their famous MAT technology. They weigh an amazing 18.5 Lbs front and 19 Lbs. rear - which is a forged wheel territory.

What do you guys think of these? They're light grey and will be going on an Alpine White e90. And has anyone had any experience with these? The more opinions the better. By the way they're only 1200 bucks.

Thanks a lot.

Decent looking wheel. The tire rack simulator just can't show a true look.IMO.

That is a better sample.
I think those wheels will look much better in the flesh.
And the weight savings will definitely be felt.

Thanks, that's the biggest advantage for me is saving 15-17lbs per corner vs. stock wheels with RFT tires
