Are they pimp? yep... You could also used them to advertise something. Definetly banned soon.

It was only a matter of time, since they introduced those spinning clocks years back that make time patterns from led's.

As stupid as they are - the technology is kinda cool. Any turd who spends that much on friggin wheels needs to see a shrink.

I'm not usually a fan of that kind of stuff, but I think this is a really cool idea. From the demos it looks like it works really well. But I think people are right - this will be very distracting to other drivers, and I'm sure it will be banned pretty soon. But it's still impressive technology.

I remember last year some company had something similar to this, but it wasnt as fancy and the image displayed was only in red.

Anyway, it will be cool for a company marketing their product. For example the Coca-Cola image they shown.

New style of dish wheels. There will be some folks putting that on a 06LS460 or the new S-class and think that they have arrived

I think I recall someone on here actually admitting they put spinners on their IS. Maybe whoever that was will give these a whirl?!

Im sure these ugly wheels will be popular now. I can just see someone staring at these wheels at night not paying attention to the road and then flying off a bridge or something. Not the greatest idea
