Seen motorcycles use carbon wheels for many years but to see them on cars is always cool and unique.

The fronts are 20x8.5, wonder what the pattern and offset are? As if I could afford them.

Those are pure eye candy! 

I was trying to figure out what wheel color would look OK with the Champagne color on my MKS.  I think those wheels would even look good on a dog poop brown 70's Buick.
