A guy a used to know had a shop that carried Toora wheels. The shop is
New Dimensions down in Santa Clara, CA.
He had a set of them on his very modded white G60 Corrado. They looked
great, were novel with the center nut concept when other wheel makers were
marketing their "race nuts" (TSW, etc), and were very high quality, as you
can ascertain from the high prices listed on that website.
Thing is, the wheels were much heavier than regular wheels for some
reason. Probably due to the hub adapter in addition to the wheel.
BUT...considering the options for the 505, I'd say go for it if they make a
hub adapter in 4x140 and the correct center bore.
