well put. Plus I think that it just wrong to mod a car like this. Its like saying I want to put some DUBS on my Ferrari 250 California that only had a handful made. Its just wrong

I like the wheels but I'd like them a lot more if the front had a little concave to it and if the lips were chrome or polished.

What do they make, like 20 of these per year? Why would you need it to stand out any more than it does. Putting rims on it is just silly.

Because stock is stock. Even if the stock wheels are nice enthusiasts have that need to make their car their own.
Nothing wrong with it at all.

Stock is 1 out of 400,000
Art is 1 out of 20

lol you personalize it with "yes, this is 4 of 20" But as stated, to each their own.

BTW, www.jameslist.com has 15 Reventons on sale.... (website is phenomenal)

Here's a couple of pics from some of their cars (and a reminder of why it's a piece of art, lol)















Interior (oh my):

this. any filthy rich old grandma can go buy one of these things and drive it around; along with other filthy rich people who just buy these things to say they have it. i'd wnat mine to stand out from those others, so it looks like i actually do care and actually do drive it as it as engineered to be driven.
not saying i'd put these particular wheels on, but i'd definitley put something different on there.

This is a tough one, the aftermarket wheels look nice, but the stock one's just fit the whole design of the car better.
