    Saw this one at auction. Kind of looks like a fat whitewall. Not sure if I like it but it is different. 20150821142854-512e657b-1ae4-49f6-b0d3-c87bc1f8b55d.jpg 20150821142856-67ad9222-5d47-4459-a82f-7de9202a3186.jpg 20150821142857-87b99571-74a6-43bb-8fe3-f60c37863ce8.jpg

    Too bad I don't like it.

    Because I don't like the wheel covers.

    Unfortunately? While I would give points for a clever attempt at something different, I'm just not sure it works.

    Wonder if it would look better if you covered the outside ring in a carbon fiber vinyl? Or painted it a different color?

    I'm afraid as it is, it looks too much like what it is...which are wheel covers with the center cut out. And that's not a good look.

    I would like to see what it looks like rolling.

    that gives the effect of the rims being a 12 inch rim
