What's with so many rims having the studs on the outer hub of the wheel?? That seems to be such a common design trait on so many rims! While I like these rims, it seems that is a useless design trait that is becoming more and more common in rim designs everywhere.

the wheels are made by Foose so I imagine they have a purpose

could be a two-piece wheel?

I like them. It is a very nice looking wheel. My husband wants to go with 20 on my car, but I am most likly going to stick with 18's, I may do 19's.

I really hope $2600. is for the rubber as well. I am also not a fan of the studs. When I was young they were functional for racing but now all I see is hours of cleaning around all the studs to keep them looking new.
Having said that I hope you enjoy them.

Those don't look too bad. I personally hate the bolts, but to each their own.

they look hot and two piece wheels are pretty sweet. people dont like the bolts until they bend a rim and wish they could just switch out a smaller part instead of the whole wheel.

I cant imagine spending that much money. there is a guy here that has foose wheels on his S10 and they look like any other wheel on the road. only shiney.
