Ebay, the store is "very_sure1_ motorparts shop" and the guy was good about answering questions. There are 17, 18, 19, and 21's listed. The first time i was on the site, there were silver anodized as well. The brand is US Racer Boy. I checked it out and i think they "may" be Takasago knock off's, but can't verify that. There is also other stores in Bangkok selling them for about the same and had many colors in aluminum and chrome steel rims. The quality is awesome. I lace quite a few wheels and would definately buy these again. You can, however, see the brushed look through the anodizing, but it doesn't detract from the look or strength. Hope this helps.
