those are on a banned members car. His screen name is vipmaxima (or something like that) I believe. I think he is still active on forums.nycmaximas.org
And yeah... they are mille migila EV-S. Not EV-5.

These ev-s have a harsher edge and a thicker spoke design. they weigh more also. The ev-5 design has been on a a lot of members cars and is one of the best looking designs that compliment the shape and lines of our 4th gens. Most people have these in the painted silver color. Also, the ev-s spoke design gets noticably thicker as you move away from centre. Not so much with the ev-5.

ev-5

ev-s not a very good picture but you should get the general idea.

Would you like to know the real reason why none of the Millie Miglia's are not made anymore, and why they are so rare now?
A: The reason is because, Millie Miglia is an Italian company which had a manufacturing plant in Italy. A couple of years ago the manufacture had a horrible fire and burned down. It has not been revived ever since, and that is why you can not get these wheels anymore. Furthermore, Tirerack has been trying to replicate their wheels as you've seen the copycats on their site that they offer. Unfortunately, although they look identical, they are not the original and the quality of them is only a guess compared to the true Millie's. My source for all of the information above is directly from Tirerack, from when I was getting my EVO 5's sprayed, I was looking for the original center caps. The representative proceeded at that point to tell me what happened.
There's your reasoning for anyone that cares.
I'm glad I have the originals.
I turned away many offers for my wheels this year because they are so rare. I had 1 offer from someone that was for $2000.00 that I turned down. They will only increase in value as far as I'm concerned as long as there are people out there that want them.
