You mean the spinning hubcaps? $50 for super cheap. That buys you the hubcaps themselves and a laugh from everyone else on the road. They look ridiculous.

I'm pretty sure you can get spinning rims too. I'm just curious why you have to impress someone who has already changed their surname for you... with spinning rims? I think flowers would go down better.

Yes you can get spinning rims mate, but they are very hard to find. The reason for this is that most people aren't stupid enough to buy them.

Plenty of spinning hub caps out there, I suggest you invest in those while you learn the error of your ways.

What you buy Loverboy??

If you want some wheels why not put big 24" spinners and a custom homemade two tone paint job over a cardboard bodykit???? Isnt that what they do in the states?

Cheerz,
