Default Where can I get a wheel like this......

I am looking for a gold wheel like this:

I have a Dark Blue 99 that these would look good on. I currently have gold painted wagons which are ok but not what I really want.



Thanks for any help!

Ok, what are you really asking? Obviously, you got the pic from somewhere.....


Oh, I'll give in....the wheels are made by "Axis" and the style is "reverb". Good luck on finding them to fit anything but a ricer or a neon, etc.

Yea, so when you put Nitrogen in, you can purge the regular air out at the same time.

It is a racing wheel the second valve stem is to run a inner bladder so if the tire goes flat it won't go down on the rim.
