    Just saw some new style wheels on the market. This one is called the BMD Piraiba Max, comes in 5 and 6 lug large pcd. They can be customized in sizing you want and its something different then what is available on the market now

    Yeah, I thrash my truck so I don't want to spend big money on rims that will be gouged. If you're into the X-runner or mall crawl crowd I could see the appeal but still... ouch. The mods you could do for $10K other than rims....

    $11,600 + tax. But who's counting?

    Ok, I am.

    I had forged wheels on my Solo II car in a 15x7 size that tipped in at 10#, and looked sharp as well. But they hurt my feelings at $200 each.

    For that kind of $ it better say Boyds or Foose while being bolted on a Riddler contender.

    Sure, forged aluminum is the best, but damn that price makes no sense.

    They must have meant either 29,000 yen or 242 USD a rim. Right??!?!??

    Too many little bits to keep clean for my truck. I barely keep the floor mats shaken out.
