Dub Pimp Star Bling Bling Wheels

Advertisement

small_pimpstar.jpgThese wheels bring bling bling to a whole new level. Pimp Star wheels allow you to define a graphic image to display on your spinning wheels while your vehicle is moving. With the package comes software which allow you to change the image anytime you want, and even define a few images to show in slideshow mode. Ridiculous, I don’t even want to image how much these wheels cost. This is even more over the top than LCD screen headlights. But there’s market demand in the US, like the rich rapper stereotypes who drive Hummers.

    Yes, true, it may cause more accidents, and maybe you need an extra battery for that bling item. I like spinners better than this. Looks more descreet.

    U see oversea consumers can enjoy all kind of cars' innovation in the market. I don't think it will cause more accidents as we see the wheel just like look at the whole car!

    wahlaueh….

    Really eyes catching with the light especially in the very dark area. But not sure next morning the wheels still stick on the cars or replace with bricks under the car….. :) :)

    My 1st thought will be like 'Ah Beng' style of wheels, but no in this case, it can display mny kind of graphics.

    perghh..look at the pricetags! USD12500.00 for a set of 22' wheels!! But i welcome this technology, and who knows perhaps in 5 years frm now this will be normal add-on tht u can buy locally, but still pricey la.

    AhBengs will surely loovve this, but i think it depends on yer art taste la.

    I think it looks cool but dangerous as it's distracting if allowed on our road. Furthermore, it is extremely over-price. We can probably rigged it locally ourselves for under RM2k for a set of 16" wheel. Lighting kits like these are available but you would have to solve the powers upply connection problem and the balancing of the wheel problem.

    ok! looks very interesting,a totally cool innovation!…..people will just stare at it.well ..if someone use these rims,i think they better put "do not stare too long" sign at the back so that people will not stare too long to these rims….or else accidents might occur.thats a great suggestion right!!!
