Default Some pretty sick wheels!

I was browsing through one of my magazines and saw some pretty nice wheels!
The red and black ones caught my attention which are nice on white black and red GC's. Let me know what u guys think!

The upper portion of the middle wheel, looks like it's open because of the flash, if it were, these would be awesome.

Nice thing about the bottom wheel is it looks like those doodads can EASILY be removed for to paint another color. ^_^

Still, not for me, but very nice looking. Any idea as far as weight and prices?

Ya i know but what can you expect for 180 a wheel lol
As far as i know lighter wheels = more $$$ and if not then they're probably soft.
But i may be wrong

What's the weight on the stock 18's?
I thought I heard the 19's were almost 50lbs somewhere..

The last ones look horrible and very cheaply made. If i had to pick one, I'd pick the very top one. And only if i had a red car.

I'm really not into any of them because they look overly flashy. I think Five Axis made the second one first though.


^^That one looks far superior to the XXR version. And it comes in a bunch of colors.

That weight is for the wheel + tire combo.

If by sick you mean that they make you want to vomit, then I concur.
