Very weird look, why even bother having tires with those rims? May as well be riding on the rims themselves. Would love to see what happens when you hit a pothole or any kind of road imperfection with those rubber band tires....Might go something like this....

I agree, it could probably go up another series or two...30's upped to 40's, etc.

Finally found the seller. They look WAY better w/o the stupid black painted on the spokes. I'm too lazy to figure out how to convert it to $, but I don't doubt they're expensive.

That's about $904~ish. Not a bad price for what it is. I wanna see them on a X5!

I wrote the seller to see who his supplier is or if he can point me to someone more local.

They won't ship out of the UK, and i'm pretty sure I wouldn't wanna know what it would cost to ship them anyways.
