Default RE: Spinner Wheels

I have 20x10 rims on my Infiniti Qx4. The lip is very deep, I found some add on spinners on the web that claim to do just as well as spreewells/oasis spinners. Has anyone on here tried these, or even seen these. They sell from $800 for all four to $2000.

Doubt that you'll find many CL members who have experience with spinners on their cars...

I dont have any add on spinners, but i know someone who has the Diablo ones, and one of them will not spin properly. He has been back to the shop 3 times, but they cant find the problem, plus alot of the add on spinners, have a warped spin pattern. Your best bet is to look around for some Davins, they are designed, crafted, and R&D'd to be spinning wheels from the onset, which is better than the add on.

LOL thats sad. If your gonna get a spinning wheel you get davins, u dont buy those disgusting adapters. They look like shiny plastic spinning connected by 2 little bolts. Ill kick those things and they snap in half with ease.
