Clear Wheels (I can see straight through)

Sure to be the latest craze are these rims released at this years SEMA - completely transparent. It also is some indication of what your bank account will look like once you've bought these - they run for at least $2000 per wheel - that's a nice round $8k (without tires I might add) as the entry price.

Oh, and given everyone is going to be looking directly at your brakes, if you're not lucky enough to already have a decent set on, you better throw in another 4 grand for a big brake kit from Brembo or AP or someone.

What I really want to know though is how on earth you keep these things clean, especially with the brake dust staying on the inside? Maybe just have "people" to take them off every night and give them a quick rince?
