New Smart, need wheels..

Hi. I'm looking for new wheels for my Passion. I tried to skim this section but there are so many posts it's confusing. What's the best place to get some cool wheels for my Smartie?

Thanks

Jay

Wow, beautiful. But they're pretty expensive, aren't they? I just started looking and it seems like all the Smart wheels are pricey.

The Schmidt Space Line wheels are actually all sold by Fog City Performance out of San Francisco and they have them in stock. You may want to give them a call direct on (415) 229-3191. They import the wheels and wholesale them through Dealers.

6-spoke Euro rims

On the topic of wheels...

Does anyone know if and where you can get hold of the 6-spoke wheels seen on the Euro smarts for a reasonable price? Look at page 5 of this PDF:

http://www.smart.com/-snm-0135207688...imited_two.pdf

I know this is the limited edition model, but I've seen these same style rims (maybe not quite as wide) on the Daimler media photo site. IMHO, these should be the standard smart rims - good looking, easier to clean.
