Spinner Wheels are passé

Those spinner wheels you see on cars have now officially become passé.
Jumped the Shark.
16 minutes - buh bye…

Say hello to PimpStar wheels by Dub Wheels.

The PimpStar is a huge leap forward in the evolution of the wheel. With the PimpStar's built-in full color LED lights, microprocessor and wireless modem, you can display virtually any image, including text, graphics, logos, and even digital photos!

The included software allows you to create your own images and send them to each wheel individually or all wheels at the same time as you drive! You can even pre-load up to six images into each wheel and program them to change automatically at the time intervals you select. The wheels are environmentally sealed, so you don't have to worry about going to the car wash; and they are powered by the vehicle electrical system so there are no batteries to run out or change, ever.

Pricing starts at $12,500 for four with Pirelli tires.

And I bet that 3rd party add-ons will have that down to $1K in a year. The technology and software is not that difficult.

And I was thinking of putting spinners on our tractor — that would be fun to see…
