I think that a group of engineering students came up with the concept maybe 5 years ago, could be wrong though. I don't really like them though. They look pretty tacky to me, just like most new things in aftermarket wheels.

That's actually really cool. Now I can tell off the moron next to me for cutting me off!!! I like that idea...kinda cool. Don't think I'd ever use it, though.

My favorite part: "..and you can do it while you're driving! ...you don't even have to stop your car."

Yes, that sounds like a good idea. Let's all take our eyes away from the road and program images to display on our rims. Who cares if you drive head-on into a brick wall? As long you have a marijuana leaf on your rims while you're doing it.

While I find those particular wheels REALLY ugly, I love the idea of it.

If they put that onto a nice looking wheel I'd definitely consider it.

I remember seeing them quite some time ago. They're super expensive I believe.

Edit: And I'm sure I'm going to have my Camaro Fan license taken away for this, but... I also love undercar neon kits. Nowhere else, but under the car looks great. Seeing a car drive down the road 'floating' on a cloud of color looks cool imo. :::ducks and runs:::

you should come down here, most people arent looking at the road as it is anyway. and the ones that are, are either going 45 in a 60 or talking on their cell phone and drinking their lattes.


I was thinkin theyd be good for a burnout contest, have Z28 flashing thru the smoke

I like them but as for price, try $12,500 for 22" rims with tires, $15,000 for 24" rims with tires, and $19,500 for 26" tires. The tires are Pirelli tires. The commercial with the girl in the ferrari is pretty funny though.

That would be an awesome use for them. But that's about the only good use I can think of... They'd be good for show cars, but the only problem is that the wheels have to spinning at a pretty good speed for them to work, and most show cars are standing still while on display.
