    I`m thinking the same thing. Why would you want to spend that much money on wheels? And where would you drive it when you have 24 carat gold and diamonds lining your wheels?

    I like Fikse wheels, and they are expensive because they are built to the highest engineering standards. I still wouldn`t buy a set, because with wheels you are only one unseen pothole away from disaster.

    Those wheels look like copies of typical aftermarket chrome-plated bling that you can find in any import tuner magazine... except for the gold and diamonds, of course. They break no new ground, technology- or construction-wise, however.



    But hey, if someone is willing to pay five figures for a can of wax, there must be a market for these things... :nixweiss

    lexani`s and asanti`s aren`t exactly the most expensive wheels in the world. honestly, kinda cheap in quality too IMO.

    Did you see their "wheel care" section? They recommend a 50/50 Simple Green mixture to clean them! They do not recommend "off the shelf" wheel cleaners.



    I don`t know about you guys, but given all those great, dedicated gentle wheel cleaners, I`d never let SG touch my aftermarket wheels.

    those most expensive rims look like the ADR`s you can get on ebay for 800bucks. Those asanti wheels are stupid as hell. I dont know why you would put ostrich on your wheels. At first it was kinda cool looking on interior seats but now on wheels W T F! I saw a guy riding in a 98 explorer white that had LV graphics all over it in like font 1900 it looked stupid as hell. And he still had spiderwebs on it .



    The lexani site sucks, i remember when those wheels came out years ago. years later their rims still look like ****, but theyre charging an arm and a leg for them and i dont know why.



    If i were going to get some wheels id get CCW or Forgeline wheels.
