wow i think that would freak me the hell out if i saw a car pull up and i just saw tires and brake rotor...

if break dust isnt an issue it would kinda be cool i guess. very blacked out look ish.

You went to SEMA?? I would love to go there.....Anyway, how would you clean these? You would have to remove the wheel everytime they got dirty. Dirt and brake dust would have to build up on the backside. I like em....the next thing I could see is someone throwing neons up in the wheel area so the rim would glow.

im still looking for fiber optic wheels. Just tons of fiber optic cables packed in really tight, so you can display stuff on your wheels, i guess LEDs could work too. So you could display DVDs or TV on your wheels, have the display rotate the opposite way at the same speed of the car so the picture stays still. That would be the most baller shit ever. 22" screen wheels!!!!!!!! WOOOT WOOOT

technically if u wanted a really basic version u could do it with only a couple lights like those crazy clocks that have the arm that goes back and forth

that's just retarded.. for 5k per wheel... they aren't that heavy, but def not a performance wheel.. I would be a little bit worried about cracking the centers... :(

Almost like their own spin off of Billy Lane's hubless motorcycle wheels.. Neat.
