Default Whatever happend to teasers??? Name that Wheel!!!

After a few months waiting the wheels are finally done......

20x8.5 and 20x10 multipiece wheels.... 1 of 1

what began as an idea and drawing:





took a few months to be actually made and delivered to me at the VIP Auto Fashion show.










right now just waiting for the tires to be shipped out to me and hopefully someone will hook me up w/ some brakes.

you didn't think i'd actually leave the centercaps for you to zoom in did ya?

CENTER CAPS HAVE BEEN PHOTOSHOPPED CLEAN of branding.....

so what wheels are these???

You're right, I didn't take the time to even realize the width of the spokes nor the angulation

I like that last picture of the wheel with you car sitting back there . It looks like the car is saying "Put those shoes on me.....Right Now!"

So are the other 2 rims for the other side have the blades going in reverse? One of the problems of directional wheels is that the spokes need to be going the opposite way for the other side. All the pictures you took looks like it's for the passenger side of the car.
