Sunken Treasure is a gloss finish with metallic that will appear dark in shadows and golden root-beer in direct light, sometimes with a tinge of copper. Overall, a very unique finish without being too "in your face". The Sunken Treasure finish is difficult to photograph as it's very dynamic, so I've done my best to show it in various lights:








After close inspection, two of these wheels do have a minor aesthetic imperfection. These are small spots that don't take away from the finish as a whole, and wouldn't likely be noticed once installed, but we did want to mention them.

Wheel 1 blemish:

Wheel 2 blemish:


Here are some photos showing what the V801 style looks like on various BMW platforms. Exact fitment/specs/finishes may differ slightly, this is to give an idea of the wheel style as a whole:

This car actually has Sunken Treasure V801's!

"flow formed" what is that? Are these wheels forged, cast or something else? I looked on your site and found "comparable to" forged. That sounds a lot like Semi-solid forging.

A flow formed wheel can be thought of as a middle ground between casting and forging. A flow formed wheel has a cast face and a barrel that is rolled out to it's final specs using a great amount of pressure and heat. This process creates a higher tensile strength and allows the wheels to be lighter while maintaining the appropriate strength characteristics.

Interesting. I had never heard the term. Thanks for the explanation. I used to work for the company that made the Plymouth Prowler wheels and suspension, it sounded like it might be a similar process.
