Leisa and S. 4 Life NM?
wow thats interesting...that look crazy driving down the hwy....I'd like to know where he got them and how much they are....
I'd assume they'd look basically the same going down the highway lol... all you'd see is the center cap/lugs spinning.
definitly need some really nice big brakes to make that even look alright
Looking for a shop that does quality work??
Mainstream Performance is the place to go
"Don't make excuses...make power"
yeah duh....but you seen that driving? seeing the brakes easily would be cool too!!.....only problem would be cleaning them...you'd have to take the wheels off alot to clean the "plastic"
yeah you'de have to clean behind the wheels w/ the Take off, ramp or lift methods
Hardly worth it if you ask me.
Leisa and S. 4 Life NM?
plug i wonder if they scratch easy...and if they will not tarnish over time...but hey atleast its 2 piece...if not 3..
i call bs
u would
Travis, they arent plastic... Here is the specs of what they are made of....
Transparent aluminum! 3 times stronger then steel of the same thickness

Aluminum oxynitride is a ceramic, that uses sapphire. These aren't aluminum windows, they are aluminum oxynitride which uses aluminum oxide as it's base.

R.I.P Leisa, You are never forgotten - 10/7/08
tight work
uhh, hope you don't like driving hard. they may be strong, but they will not allow air to the brakes and you'll have to remove the wheel to clean them all the time.
i don't know about those, intersesting but i wouldn't put them on my car
They all should come with a brake upgrade...ALL!!!
How do clear wheels make you stop having brake dust?
thats freakin hot
I really do have a life...
Brake dust will not be present on the exterior of the wheel, pay attention to the design.
Shit has no spokes so dust can not surface through.
Only problem is that it will stick to the inside.

veird.....
Hawtness...... how much do they cost???
I think those are hot.
That is generally not my style either..
Ive been noticing people have been doing funky things to the wheels of these cars clear wheels tv in the wheel on the wheel. Thats crazy
