Those are hub caps........right?

Sorry, not my cup of tea

$95 for plastic hubcaps? You're kidding right Journie? I don't care if they spin or not, why spend almost $400 on a set of 4 hubcaps made of nice hard (probably easily breakable) plastic?

No, guys, I think... and correct me if i'm completley wrong... But i believe these are JUST the spinning part, and not an actualy hub cap, and they fit Aftermarket.. or if you're that Cheap.. stock rims. They are made of plastic, because from what i hear the metal wasn't working for the spinners because it was throwing the balance off, so they either make them with plastic or this expensive lightweight metal (Thats y the Spreewels are so much)! I could of heard wrong, but this is what i've heard!

Cosidering the buy it now is only 95 and shipping is 10 bux, I really hope this is a joke. If not, either way, spinners are a joke. Horrible! Especially in 13, 14, and 15s.....

How long do you think it will take them to make hubcaps that fit like a regular hubcap but overlap the actual tire, making a 15 "appear" to be an 18 from a distance? I've wondered about that for a while.

Does anyone know if they are sold in stores? My friend was checking this out with me and he wants some on his winter ride.
