Default 3 spoke designs yay or nay?

I stumbled across these 3 spoke wheels while reading some car magazines

http://www.hd-inc.com/06SINGOWbk.html

do you think they would look good on a scrion tc bsp?

quick chop?


just a rough idea

EDIT: Now that I think of it.. those wheels would look fantastic on a mercedez.

the photochop took me 10 seconds cut n past then free transform.

A nice photochop would take much more time than id care to use, I just put that one together to give you guys a rough idea

yea I like the 3 spoke design, but then

im borderline, because they also look like cheap advan knock offs.

I like black matte and black gloss,

IMO black matte looks better with bsp during bright daylight hours because bsp turns almost gun metal in the sun, making black gloss look too dark for it.

but at night and low light conditions, black gloss looks so nice which black matte looks too plain.

im kind of feeling the tenzo gt6 also with the polished deep lip er... fake lip?

still looks nice though, tcs cant really sport wheels that are 9" width without a widebody kit and spacers.

HD wheels are crap, get the real advans, look much better.

plus you can get them in purty colors ;)

yea but there are no black gloss advans and
$3k for a set of scion wheels is a bit too high IMO.

This was just a thought anyway, I wont ever be able to change wheels for a looooong time.

just wondered what you all thought about 3 spokes.

those wheels are gross as shiz...

if you want a nice real 3 spoke.. get advans like it was said above.. or you can pick up a set of older 3 spoke advans for cheaper then the 2k you might be paying... and you can order black gloss advans.. it would be a custom order but you can do it..if not paint them yourself..

IMO i think it would look pretty hot.. but IT SHOULD BE THE ADVAN 2ND GEN or current GEN...they are the only ones that came in 5x100...

you can also try the konig mp3's... i cant remember off hand any decent 3 spoke design off the top of my head.. but the advans would look hot.. in blue or red..
