Is "bit the billet" a clue?
You have gone completely mad and ordered a set from Chip Foose.

lol, not really a clue, just thought I'd add a pun!
Even though the choosing and buying process has almost sent me mad!
Considered the following wheels before settling on my choice:

Kei Fin 7
Rota (quite a few to choose from and they are lightweight)
Team Dynamics pro race 1.2 and 2

team dynamics Pro Race 1.2

Wanted them in black but can only get them in crystal titanium for the price I wanted to pay. I have a cunning plan - when I go BEC in a couple of years I will powdercoat them matt black to celebrate the change!!

Nice How much did they set you back?
Im going to use the tintop wheels on mine as they have the same hubs and get new wheels for the tintop

£500 inc toyo t1-r tyres and locking wheel nuts.

Good choice. I'm currently in the process of painting mine satin black. I'm waiting for the hammerite to cure before giving them a second coat and getting the tyres fitted.
