Jesse James designed his own wheels and now they are for sale. They're not cheap but the model 38 would be awesome on a thirdgen. Maybe someone can photoshop these things.

I know I can't afford them right now. The others look a little "Ghetto" in my opinion.

I dig the wheels but for 4 grand I'll stick to my chrome IROC wheels. Thanks for the photoshop. After looking at the model 44 I kind of like them also.

They are all a little too truck/suv and bling blingish to me. And for the price I'd rather get the fikse's or something.

Most of those are way to big for our cars. I wouldn't put anything on over 17 inches on our cars. Those are to expensive and have the bling bling factor that I don't think belongs on a sports coupe or car.

Maybe it's just me, but I think big hoops makes your car look like a Conestoga wagon.

i think the 38's are the only ones that look good. But $2500 for 4 of these, i rather spend that on a LS1.
