Default spinning rim!!?

I saw this really cool rim, its a rim that keeps on spinning even when you stop. It gains momentum when your driving, and it still spins when you stop.
Do any of you have any info on this? A web site, picture... whatever!!!
thanks

I have only seen these on Mercedees Benz's. I seriously doubt that they make the correct offset for S2000's. I saw them advertised for $8995 in Houston. Just my $.02.

I'm sure each wheel weighs 50lbs. Momentum doesn't have anything to do with performance. If you want this wheel for show, I'm sure it will look fine in the ghetto.

Even if these do come in the correct offsets for the S, I beg you. Please, please, please do not put these on your car.

ferrariman: I hope you have some SUV or Benz that you are thinking about putting these on and not the S?!?!?! But I guess its your car if you like it then buy it.

These wheels you're talking about have been around forever. I've seen them at the autoshow and on "thuggish" looking luxury cars down in LA.

From what I remember, they are REALLY expensive too and definitely not my style.
