Default Good or bad idea? Interchangable rim face

Looks like Gianelle wanted to sell 3 rims for the price of one. Has 3 face plates that you can switch anytime you want. Might be something of interest if they can guarantee it does not fall of while driving, especially on the highway or during highway speeds. Just searching new stuff.

Sort of but you screw them on. The rim stay the same but the design changes. Similar to the Dub spinner series. I like color matched wheels so it would be easy to paint these to match your car and good for resale too.
