Money can't buy taste. I think that's the dumbest looking wheel I've ever seen.

I think its safe to say that its a new concept for the wheel industry. So when something new is out people will pay rediculous amount of money to be the first to rock them. Give it a year everyone will be saying how lame they are after they become played out. But for the time I am not digging them.

I wonder how you wash that...every week you have to take off the wheels in order to keep it clean. That's a lot of work!

don't like it on the car, but for the motocycle it's pretty neat to see straight through the wheel....

At certain angles, it looks like a huge spare.

I guess I am in the minority, but I think they look pretty good?

Cleaning, brake cooling, and price are big issues though.

I hate Bling Bling, but I have to say I like those wheels. Not taking into account the money or cleaning.
