early 90's caddy......nuff said........lol.........try something more recent......a early 90's caddy probably would look tight with spoke spinners, because they look tight with just regular spokes......

Hate at first site... come on, it's just like a relationship- you need to get to know the rims before you make a judgement! BE ONE WITH THE RIMS!!! :fadein:

I'm not so sure how much exactly, but from what I have heard it runs around a thousand and up. Prices also varies by the size, style, and finished.

Those are hot! If I were to get some, I would get none other than Davins. To me, all the rest are just fakes.

One of my buddies is looking in to getting them for his van http://www.sounddomain.com/id/ctb106prh
he wants the ones that are the hub type you bolt on, they run about $1000 for a set, but there is no real way to secure them so they would be easy to steal. I think the spinning rims look good, I saw a set on a new impala yesterday and they looked sick, the two sets spin at different speeds when the car is moving it looks cool.

i like spinners, if your going to get them i would say get spintek..i think it is..the ones from sprewell racing are like 6-7K a wheel....but if ur from so. cal i would say don't get them cuz the roads aer fukked up here....but i like spinners, the solara is really too heavy to make fast, so might as well get a loud system some nice spinners.....there's a lot of good ones if u watch the three 6 mafia music video for "riding on spinners"

Yeah, kondo, I saw an Impala SS/Caprice in custom Tangerine orange paint with 20 or 22 inch (they looked bigger than 20 almost) with 5 spoke spinners. Looked like it had 3 layers, hard to explain. Like the main back, a spinner in the middle, then a spinner on that spinner. It was coming out of the parking lot at a pet supermarket. I just stopped in my car, trying to look in, but the 5% tint all around didnt help. Oh yeah, the guy must of propped the car up 2 or 3 inches cause the car was pretty high too.

What a flashy car. I could just imagine that he either has some heat on him all the time to protect himself from thieves or haters, or some sort of insane alarm system.
