Finally! Invisible Wheels!
In case you happen to not like your wheels, a company called Radurra decided you don't need to see them at all. First seen at SEMA, they are now shown on a car. Looks pretty cool/strange. Here's one pic shown on a S550 Lorinser.


Several more images, including one on a chopper, can be seen here.

Can you imagine the inside coated in brake dust and crap? Now you gotta take your wheels off to clean them.
