These negative opinions on the wheels seem odd to me - I guess because not a single person made that comment about the exact same finish on the McLaren Special Ops car that was unveiled in Pebble Beach this Summer. Not just here on TeamSpeed either - I'm talking anywhere.







Maybe it was the lighting?

not a fan of the diamond cut wheel finish either. too bling for me. i like the standard silver or the stealth grey. more over, love the styling on the lightweight more. the super lightweight is cool but the 10 spoke is just too common now.
