Looks good on the motorcycle. I'm sure they would be a bitch to keep clean.

I think they would be sorta ok for certain motorcycles but absolutely not cars.

I agree. Absolutely terrible on cars.

My main problem with them is how to keep them clean... On a motorcycle you could do it but with a car you would have to pull the wheel to clean it properly.

That just looks weird. I guess it would be okay on a bike but other then that i give it a X.

Uhhhhh .... why not just make a rim with the center cut out? No spokes = "clear" ... wtf is with the plastic?

WTF? why is a pizza chain gettin in on the rim business?

I heard the clear ones were stronger than regular wheels. i saw a 350z with them w/ the brembo kit and it looked nice. ill dig up some pics

I'm just overjoyed that they finally came out with these impeccably handcrafted circular marvels.
