Cazzidy,

That's a heck of an idea. When you get your 3 pointed star hubcaps spinnin' on your 220D, please pretty please take a MPEG of it and show us all. LOL.

I honesty don't understand the attraction of spinners. First, once these puppies get on the older side, one of those bearings is going to let loose and the spinner is going to fly off at 80 mph. That is going to decapitate somebody.

Second, spinners are like hydraulic systems that make your car hop up and down. What is the point: They are expensive and add naada to the functionality of the car. If you are going to spend the dough on wheels, get some that are lighter, stronger, etc.

JMHO
