I had read that tires need to be changed every ten thousand miles on a Bugatti and that every thirty thousand the tires and wheels need to be changed!!

Well i guess the 21 inch accessory wheels
that the local dealer installed on a pair
of 2LS's is far from being the most
expensive wheels on a Camaro ~

Just NEVER buy Savini wheels. They are not made for actual use. Only to look good.

after seeing some of these prices, I have determined that some people must have way too much money in their accounts.

The steelies and dog dish poverty caps look absolutely stunning on this ultra-rare and expensive '69 ZL1.
What you spend on wheels is not important, the car that rolls on them is.
Someone said the bigger the wheel the smaller the ****.

If they were meant for use they would have made them round.

My set of lexanis cost ~3k. You look up some Asantis, and they are 3k+ a wheel - even without the jewels.

When i decided i wanted new rims. I searched for 2 months. I must have looked at hundreds of sets in tons of combinations. When all was said and done i only found 3 that i REALLY liked. 2 were like $5k the 3rd was the friggin stock wheels in gloss black.

$400 later and i have gloss black powdercoated & cleared stock 20's. Was a no brainer for me.
