Great promotional video! It's too bad nobody on the forum grabbed up BLKFIN's DPE's wheels when he had them for sale:

https://www.crossfireforum.org/forum...eels-sale.html

They look even better in person! If purchased new, he said they would cost around $6k for the set.

The car (with wheels) is sold now.

John, they are beauties but you'd never find them on my car. After having to clean the SRT6 wheels for as long as I did, anything with a raised inner lip between the spokes automatically loses in my book. Beautiful, yes... but they can be beautiful on someone else's car.

Shut up and go build a 55K XF I will be outside cleaning MY wheels, more spokes and lots more chrome than those, easy by comparison, to clean SRT wheels

I might actually get done faster than you. LOL They look awesome and it's not so much the number of spokes but all the corners that have me upset. If only they would have made the SL turbine wheels in 18x8.5" and 19x9.5"-10" I'd be rockin' those in a heartbeat!

Look at those 22 spoke beatuies!!!

We did talk to Rob about his wheels at Woodward, they look good and are priced well too.

My guess is that with Rudy's upcoming 55K, he wants some truly unique wheels no one else is running.

I know I would

I saw the Lorinser wheels he's got on and they look really good but like John said, I want something nobody has and will probably never have on.

You'll see Rush and Franc agree on politics before you see something like that on my vehicle. If you still had your car, you could come down to the Dragon and see them in a few day!
