Photobucket
these rims are a million dollars each, at the show this was cubic zirconia but when you order the rims they put real diamonds in them,
quarter million dollar rim

the gold you see is 14k, making these rims a quarter mill

Man, no kidding. I wonder what the profit margin is on something like that. Seems you could retire comfortably if you sold a set. Cool find. One of those things I would never imagine.

A police officer with bling-bling for the cars. Who would've thunk it?

Wow! Interesting to say the least! If I had a million dollars to spend on diamonds, they'd be going on my fingers though, not on my rims! LOL!

yeah and no offense to Detroiters(i live here so I feel I have this right and only cause I've had batteries taken out of my car, tires stolen, cars stolen, my purse stolen and the list is endless) but this is where the show was, I certainly would not drive these around here unless I had some serious thief stoppers,

I'm sure they wouldn't be on a car for long! Can't imagine that.
