    I know I'm gonna get mixed emotions on these , but I have to get everyones opinion. After I shave the handles and drop it 2 more inches why not go with the old school Smoothie look? Or do they put off too much shine? And they're only $199/rim from centerline. I have never seen a NBS LS1 truck with these. I might do it just to be different! And they'd be easy to polish. And they only weigh 28lbs.

    Ok guess no one likes them. I'll keep looking around. I would do the stingrays, But I've seen too many trucks with them.

    Your brakes would overheat like a big dog, too. No ventilation is bad for the rotors and the wheel and tire seat.

    I like them. There was a set similar to that design on a feature truck in one of the mags a few months back.

    I knew there was a reason for asking you guys.I didn&#39;t even think about the brakes overheating, but it makes sense now that I think about it. I must continue the search for a rim that looks good and not a lot of people have. Thanks for the input all.
