Custom smart car wheels by Kahn Design

After a loooong wait the wheels are here!!!!

We wanted to let everyone know that after a very long wait the Kahn wheels are finally here. They cleared customs yesterday and our pallets are being delivered today.

So, if you are looking for one of the cleanest looking and best custom wheels around these are it. The wheels were designed in the UK and were made in Italy.

Please do not confuse these with mass market, made in China wheels. These are Top Of the Line. Last week we ordered a replacement wheel for a customer that needed a Bentley wheel. Since we are the dealer for Kahn we were able to special order the wheel for him (Kahn makes the Bentley wheels). Kahn designs and manufactures wheels for some of the best marques in the auto industry and we are happy to see that they have joined in and designed something for our smart.

Howy Cwap! What would that take... about an hour cleaning brake dust off each of the front wheels?

I was hoping to see something with fewer spokes-- 3 would be good.

I am totally waiting for someone to post an animated gif of Kirk yelling Kahn. I know it's gonna happen.

I'd do it myself, but I seem to recall that non members cannot upload images, and something about not linking to images on other sites?

Okay, I'll stop derailing this thread now. Those are beautiful wheels!

A little wheel cleaner makes things pretty easy. I have a set of wheels that are similar on my other car and they are pretty easy to clean. Spray and wipe.

There are a number of products on the market that can be applied on wheels that greatly reduce the amount of brake dust that can gather on wheels. That may be the easiest solution.

No, I'd just go to Tire Rack for those...

I'm thinking more like micomachine's wheels on his 450 (maybe Crossblades?).
