See Through Wheels

[Two Tone Tribe]

At the SEMA showin January or something clear wheels where present. They are made of Lexan which is the same stuff that bulletproof glass is made out of. Does anyone have large enough brakes to make these look good or are they a complete waste of time?
For a picture of them look at Redline Magasine issue 111. I shall try to figure out how to get an image up but i dont thgink my scanner is working properly. http://images.google.co.uk/imgres?i...radurra+clear+wheels&svnum=10&um=1&hl=en&sa=N

They look good in a show setting but they wont help with cooling your brake disks and you'll have to scrape the brake dust off from the inside. Its a shame - it is a good idea overall but as with many show items its just not practical for daily use.

Thanks for the heads up though! Interesting stuff.

hmmm, looking upon them they really would freak me out, how is that car moving? is it hovering?

weird :?

Do a search for SBARRO hubless wheels - they are well cool. They use magnets and you can put your hand inside the rim to prove it is not attached!

Now that is something diffirent, a definite head turner, i would not mind a set of those.

Also do a search on google, it looks really nice on the bikes.
