i think the wheels have been arround for about 50 years...but a french bloke (living in america) decided to start making them again recently...


i dont like them either. i watched a program about the tuning market in america and i was shocked to see a rolls royce been fitted with 22" versions of these little buggers

On a rolls? so what? tacky wheels on a tacky car. Worse to put them on a bmw, lexus or benzo. Still, i understand your point, those things are gross!:smoker2:

[bah humbug]

We are all split on real nice racing wheels and bling $#!+. :finger:

My sisters boyfriend just ordered them for his 1:1 Tahoe. I cant wait to see them.

As for models, I think if you buy 2 sets of rims, cut the center rim part off one set of rims, drill a hole in the center, then on the other set put a small enough peg to stick in the cut out rims, youd have something like that. Just and idea. What do you guys think?

hey it works, but it doesnt spin it just floats

[flylwsi]

you're just jealous b/c you can't afford them...

the first company in the US to have them was sprewell racing, and theirs are still exclusive, going for about 10k for the set.

they were really tasteful, and not overly heavy, not any heavier than any other 20" rim for a mercedes or bmw..

why?
theirs are made of billet aluminum. know how light that is?

pretty damn light. the outer spinner isn't that heavy, it can't be, or it wouldn't spin much. they're made from thin, but strong aluminum...

so originally, they were badass.

now there are so many ugly ass knockoffs, and you can actually get the spinner portion itself, to install on any set of 20s.

lame.

they're kinda ricey now. they were cool before though...

LOL

I wouldn't mind seeing a set in real life, I wouldn't get them myself though.

Knowing this place they'll probably turn up on shitbox beaters

Those are much nicer!

I walked past a Navigator with them in a lot recently, and at the risk of getting a cap in my ass, I had to spin them myself.

LOL, I'd put them on a Hummer kit.

my point exactly...

bad ace rims there...

Not sure what they're made of. The local mall has them, I'll check it out
