I hear they test those Veilside wheels by spinning them up to full speed and throwing a frozen chicken at them to see if the turbine blades...er, spokes can withstand the impact.

Get whatever rims you want. It's your car. Even though I would never buy those funky windmill style wheels, they aren't that bad. If you like them, and you're willing to spend the cash, go for it.

But you SHOULD do plenty of research before you buy. (research price, size, weight if possible, offsets, tire matching, and of course, how it looks on the car).

I would check out the vendor classifieds in the marketplace section of the forum. That way you can find out what vendors have in stock, and work from there.

Thanks for the great tip on checking the vendor classifieds (I am fairly new to the forum). I am going to see what I can find.

Those rims look like they would act as some sort of a cooling fan. Maybe sucking heat away from brakes or engine bay?
