lots of cars
Like I said...Can't you just take the centers off and powdercoat them another color? What's so bad about that?

Aren't the centers actual Burlwood? Wouldn't that defeat the purpose of owning them?

Lets get back to the wheels, enough of the race stuff. I personally don't like them for my car, but I could see them on an escalade with wood trim or something.

If nothing else, this thread has gotten attention

Not many seem to like this wheel. But I think most on this forum are performance-oriented enthusiasts. These wheels should only go on big-bodied luxury sedans (IMHO). Phantom, Flying Spur, Maybach, etc. They're an over-the-top statement of excess just like the cars they are designed for: "I got burlwood in my 22's on my $300,000 sedan."

I think they are out of place on this forum, hence the response, but they definitely have a place.

Good luck with the sale. I will support these wheels when put on the right car. Now let the tomato throwing resume...

No sir, those rims should have never been made. Bad taste, too heavy.

Not to knock Asanti/Lexani, but some of their rims are way to gaudy this is a prime example. Some of there other more classy rims are cool. IMO.

BTW- I'm not white.

Why is it that Democrats have to convert everything into a bashing of Republicans? This was something totally different and unrelated and you had to go off and expand the scope of bashing?

Is your other car a Prius (worlds biggest environmental fraud -- like the new president ironically) covered in a sea of stickers from elections 8 years ago?

You honestly need to get a hobby and let the election go. Or you can keep babbling about elections from 8 years ago. Move on bud.

As for the wheels.... err.... not my cup of tea. Hows that?

I have but one sticker on my car... an AMERICAN FLAG.

You guys just don't realize that they would look awesome on the right car. The one that comes to my mind is the station wagon from National Lampoons Vacation.

Good point, really the election from last month should be let go as well. It's done.

On topic, these wheels suck, and so do a lot of others out as well.

Holly shish-kabob, this is one of the funniest threads I have ever read...

This poor guy wanted to sell some wheels and you guys have brought up RACE, RELIGION, and POLITICS...

And more importantly some people are stating there negative opinions

I have seen some crappy deals on forums for parts and stuff that I don't like, or that I think are "ugly", but it is not my place to highjack someones thread with "my opinion"...

Its called common courtesy...

So you guys go ahead and bash me now, cause thats what this forum is about!

by the way chaz279 welcome to MBWorld.org!

I'm sorry guys, but I couldn't pass this deal up. I just had to buy them to match the wood grain interior on my SL65. I'm now looking into finding the wood grain door handles to match.

they got potential... if they had black inner wheel color and a black lip i think they'd look good on a black benz... but other than a black car i dont see them looking good at all... honestly they kinda look like rusted wheels at first glance, but i think they have potential with the right styling...

What if you had covered your car in Burlwood and been searching high and low for some rims to set it off?
