Found these on the local cruise site, clear alloys ?
sweet as
sign me up
You like ?
I actually dont like, unless you got really cool breaks and stuff no point i guess ?
But its a cool idea :D
Certainly different! Wonder how strong they are?
You would definetly need a nice big brake kit though.
is it real ? you would have to have huge confidence in the manufacturer and whoever designed them to run such an unusual wheel material (maybee they are just for show?)
Bugger that with our pot holed roads. But I would guess that the material used would be strong enough.

I don\'t doubt they "could" be strong enough ... I just doubt whoever made them knows that is 100% the case ;)
Bound to be some thick polycarbonate.....strong stuff that...ask Mr Bush et all. :cool
Very different but not my idea of good looking.
You would need the best set of bakes the world had ever seen to pull that look off.
Alloys with some good brakes does not get better IMO. Those as cool as they are don\'t come close to 18/19\'s TE-37\'s, Mazdaspeed MS-01S of the majority of Volk alloys.
Looks like somthing from Tron or somthing west coast bugger up your car customs would do.
Me no like. :flamed
They wouldn\'t stay clear for long from the heat generated by the brakes and all the dust. Hope they are just for shows !

agreed, but they are very clever and certainly different
i think they are COOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL :D
................dons flame suit and waits...........
u sure they haven\'t just been photoshopped?
Would be interesting to seee them in flesh thou
Si
You could paint some smiley faces on them ? ;)
How hot do brakes usually get? Can\'t see them being strong enough for road use with high temps from the disks.
Would look good with a decent set of brakes though.
not much cooling to the brakes with them i wouldnt have thought...
Look cool but I suspect some photoshop action going on there
Supposed to be real but cant say for sure as off another forum and they were the only 2 pics they had ?
I think they are probably for shows only but you never know theres some very strong materials out there now :)
they look really nice but surely you would lose loads of cooling to the brakes because of the solid construction?
And agreed brake dust would soon make them as see through as a brick.
Showcar-tastic though! :)
photoshop perhaps? whats next clear nodding dogs?

Sertainly different!!
Wouldn\'t bother with the smileys though.
Need some text etched into the clear section ......
Something like :rolleyes:........ "KISS MY RIMS!!"
Jono
Very different those! Not sure if i like them though, and as alread been said, they\'d have to be just a show thing.
Next they\'ll be putting LED on them that spell out what ever message you like as you drive along! :rollin
