There are a few on the board running the turbine style and Dean on the board here might be running that style. Here is mine with some tubines. Just has a few extra spokes than that one. Closest I can come

An inactive ember by the name of Jewels has something close on her short/step... doesn't look bad at all. Her's are kind of a cross between what you show, and the turbines.

After looking again, hers are the exact same as yours.
I think they'd look better if painted like hers, but in black, and the parts that are bare alluminum on hers polished up to a chrome like finish.

Steve, if you decide to go with that style and decide to polish the spokes and lip like chrome, I know somebody personally who does excellent work on aluminum polishing!

Now that I see what they look like on the trucks....I might get these.

Jim, I'll let you know on the polishing. I have an Eastwood buffing wheel and all the compounds to do metal. I have never did wheels though.....
