All I can say is if the guy was lucky enough to buy/afford this RARE beast, he can do whatever he wants. but just a tip, keep the stock rims handy. I have a feeling you will be needing/wanting them back.

Wheel company- you're not the artist. The reality is that every time I see your wheels from now on I'm going to think you don't respect other people's design work and I definitely won't respect the wheels. Sorry, just my $0.02.
Very well said!

It's a car. It has a motor. It was meant to be driven not to be put on a showroom floor for a conversation starter as you said it should be displayed. This car should be getting put through its paces. Sorry no disrespect to you but these machines are meant to be beat on..not photographed and put up dry as some of "yall" do..

I disagree.
Reventon is a collector item more than just "a car". Some cars are rare, Ferrari Enzo, CGT etc... but this is ULTRA rare with only twenty examples built.
A Carrera GT for instance, could be driven everyday, crashed on purpose if you want, and, there will still be another 1000+ out there for you to browse thru. This is in a different league IMO.

Actually, while this car can do all the things an LP640 can, they were careful to never publish actual performance numbers because they were trying to make the point that it was to be an art study first. People were yelling about the fact that it was as expensive as a Veyron yet didn't go as fast, yet they were missing the point. It was never intended to compete. It's expected to be saved and valued over time in its ORIGINAL form. Yea, someone will always buy one and not respect the intent, but for those that do, their value will go up as the numbers of authentic cars decrease.

The new wheels look great, but I'm sure some carbon parts (like the original ones) on it would definitely look better!

i agree with a few of the posts, the wheels do not enhance the car by any means, this rare beauty is so raw the last thing i look at are the wheels, i like the stock wheels better than thos put on now. All i know is its the epitome of collector cars
