I think it looks rather nice.

However, I will second the comment about keeping them clean, having had a Harley Softail with laced wheels (what Harley calls them). They are a major pain to keep clean.

Turbodriven,
Nice Photoshop work! I can really get a sense of what they'd look like from these. Thanks for taking the time to do this.

Lig,
RE: April 1st. Ain't it great that everyone doesn't mindless think the same way. For example some people like Silverstone and some people like Sebring.

Excia,
Ya, I can see many wasted hours with a toothbrush and not enough hours driving with something like this now.

To each his own, my man.

I say - dare to be different!

As other have mentioned - the likelyhood of even custom made true wire spoked wheels is quite slim. And those old school wire wheels were REALLY heavy - as was mentioned earlier.

I hope you find what you seek.
