I've got a 17" rim from my brother's nissan spec-v that i would like to incorporate into my living room or something. I found a round piece of glass that fits perfectly over it. I'm thinking about making a small end table or something out of it, but im not sure about how to attach legs.
Anyone else here ever done this, or have any recommendations on what to do with it?

my friend mounted a billet rim inside his garage and used it to wrap his water hose around. looked pretty cool.

i know its not car-related, but im thinking of just resting the rim on top of an empty beer keg...its the perfect height, and i think the diameter is nearly perfect. I dont know how to weld, so i cant really think of any other way to support it with the stuff i have on hand
