First saw these on the last page of "European Car" (Oct-02).

The wheels are called "Classe" and OZ makes them. That silver strip you see around the edge is actually designed to be removed by OZ dealers if it gets damaged. Then its easily and inexpensively (so they say) replaced. Whatever it costs to replace it I doubt that it would compare to the $3-500 we currently have to shell out for new wheels after our cellphone rings while we are going through McDonald's drive thru and in the process of anwsering it we knock hot ash off our cigar into our crotch and we end up driving over the curb while we try and stand up through the sunroof... but I digress :P

Anyway, check this out. It don't look that spectacular or even much unique but its the wheel of the future. (IMO)

Could have saved me some cash if they had thought of it sooner for damn sure. :)

EDIT: Fixed the picture problem :)~Preppy

Hey lets try it this way. :)

(I have no idea how to make a pic reveal itself without adding it as an attachment though so I doubt the results of this will be any different.) :(

Later,
Tom

P.S. I know I am supposed to do something with the pics url and but I have not had any need to use these skills for so long I've forgotten even the simplest stuff.

Hey Tom

Great looking rims. OZ makes some really nice products.

Last time I ran over a curb, my drunk one night stand decided to make out while I was driving. As she jerked me by the shirt towards her. Next thing I know, I'm in a lip lock. Unfortunately, the car was slightly off course at this time and we made friends with the curb. Luck it was her car and not mine. I still got some :boobies :buttrock but that scared the s*** out of me.
My curb story :)

Tom,

First you have to convert it from the .bmp format to like a .jpg format. Then you can upload the image and display it on the web. Then you can do the thing and insert the URL address between those two fields. I converted your pic and posted it above. Hope this helps.

Cheers,

Hi Roman,

Thanks for the story and the info. :)

I most definately went through my share of expensive wheels the first 2 years I was driving. The roads around here have never failed to piss me off yet.

Regards,
Tom

Tom,

I hear ya. The roads in the SF bay area are not that bad but there are some spots that can really rattle the ol marbles.

Cheers,
Roman
