Lightbulb Lowenhart LD1

Hey,
Does anyone here have lowenhart LD1 rims on their SC? I would love to put them on my car. I know they look great on other cars, but I've never seen them on an SC. The 20 inch version runs about $1000 per wheel. If anyone has them please put up some pics.
Thanks,
Jake.

For what it's worth...I saw them on a SC300 5 speed, black/black on ebay a while back. It looked EXCELLENT. Some are sick of the look, but I like the LD1's. Lowenhart has a new wheel out that's exactly the same only six spoke...might wanna check into that one. I'm sure its not on nearly as many cars as the LD1's.

The only reason people are sick of the look is because other companies put out very similar looking wheels (replicas) that are more affordable. Lowenhart shouldn't let this happen because it makes real Lowenhart wheels loose their prestige.

Why not some HREs? About the same amount, better quality, and imo better looking.

I think that heavily depends on size and finish....either can be flashy or elegant ...really depends on selection...i would not generalize like that...
