I thought they were completely stupid until they started driving with them. I wouldn't have them, but a cool idea.

SaskC10 · 03-24-2006, 12:18 AM

How? What the? I don't care, those are crazy...................

Longhorn Man · 03-24-2006, 12:25 AM

I must say those wheels are Fly. [stupid joke warning]But I wouldn't call them fly wheels.

And I will say they are a bargain compaied to the $250K cubic zirconium wheels from Asanti.

**Canadian694x4** · 03-24-2006, 05:42 PM

HotRod71 · 03-24-2006, 06:08 PM

Did you watch the video? It's not just lights. They show pictures while you are driving. I am not sayin gI would give $12,500 for them. Just wanted to make sure you knew it's more than just lights. For the first 10 seconds of the video I thought they were insanely stupid, but once I saw what they really did I thought they were neat. Not my cup of tea, but I imagine Dub will make some change off these.

pissonNOS · 03-24-2006, 10:28 PM

I seen in a magazine a while back i believe it was truckin an add for $1,000,000 rims the nice thing is tho theycome with a free bentley, me id rather have a free security guard for the rims than the bentley

Oh I watched the video.So its hooked to the electrical.I leave my key turned
a little and the battery goes dead.Think what would happen if some rappin gang had your little import racers out in the LA and everyone was looking at each others cars.Some rapper was rappin and the lowriders with hydraulics were playin rap music and the spiners were spinin.Toy Truck!Sorry This post was long but I wont know anybody buy a set of those.a truck aint a truck, a car ain't a car ,and an suv ain't an suv if it has those.

I think they're running out of ideas on how to make big inch rims different and more expensive.
