All prejuduce aside they are pretty cool concept if you look at them with an open mind.... not that I would use them on a truck or driver but a showcar of sponser vehicle of some kind...they are illegal to use on the road in many states like NY anyway...for distraction reasons.... too many people would have a hard time focusing on reading them, looking for songs on ipod, texting and reading all the billboards (which should be just as illegal with that reasoning) while driving...

Good way to see if somethings really cool or not is ask a little kid....before they grow up and their mind is clouded with preconcieved notions and bias prejuduce about things....people are so worried and insecure about image and what others think about them they cut themselves short trying to fit a certain "mold"...which is the whole reason we have the divide and people dont get along in the first place...

12 grand for 'a' wheel???? Or is that for a set?

I know, I am going to spend more on wheels, than I did for my truck, BY A FACTOR OF SIX!

Perfect.

I find it telling that I have yet to see any of these on ANY vehicle, in the last four years that they have been around.

They are impressive technology for sure, but not my style... They are right up there with shopping cart handle spoilers and underbody neons

which is totally fine...I wouldnt use them either but they have their applicationa and like ...many here (and more elsewhere) have issues with lifted trucks and rollbars and mudding too...and its just as "silly and ridiculous" to them... I'm just saying if you take the stereo typing and profiling out of it they are pretty neat...
Even though I usually get complements, every now and then I get dirty looks over my headlights and think to myself really? your that insecure and narrowminded? I try to think to each his own and respect others but I admit I sometimes see something on the road of in a driveway thats so over the top with a stereotype says "look at me" I have no taste at all, am insecure and just do things to impress people....and I feel sad for them..especially when its 40k worth of stuff sitting in the driveway of a house thats literally falling apart.... now thats stupid.
