Love the open wheel look. If you can get a close-up I would love to see a tight shot. I'm in the market to ditch my lobsters.

I think they would look great on Speed Yellow. The wheels are polished with a dark grey/black accent.

Am I the only one who does not like the new Turbo wheels? They look too "techno" to me.

Very sweet wheel. Designed to make the rim look larger than 19" (IMO). Enjoy!

They look amazing - please don't chrome them! They stand out plenty - chroming is for CRAP wheels only : )

Awesome. I have really never been too much into wheels, but these are some of the best looking wheels I have seen.

Another expense for me!!
