photochop... guessing he used a tripod to take one pic of rims on the car and then another pic of the rims off of the car.... then layered the pics/messed with transparency... some people have too much time lol

They're real one off rims. They're the normal ring but the centers are special plexiglass. Pretty much only for show since one bump and they would crack/shatter.

that's crazy, i'm amazed that the plexiglass is strong enough to hold the car up..I thought i'd shatter and make the car sit on disk brakes

Plexi?
I doubt it.

I think it's Lexan or polycarbonate.
