They are indeed purdy. Wonder if you can get a matched set (same size front/rear)?

I suppose I could ask Smart Madness ... but then I wouldn't get to post this!

Your pal,
Meat.

Lol, I know what I'm getting if they release the whole body kit, which I'm sure is in the near future. To me, it's nicer than the S Mann kit.

The wheels look like the OLD Alpina BMW wheels from the 1980s. It is a proven design that many people liked then as is the 5-spoke wheel that is common and look real good on RacingHart wheels in the last decade.
My smart is fun but I am not delusional - if i wanted to spend thousands to make my smart look and go fast, then I would have bought another car.... it kinda defeats the idea of a thrifty econo-car. But this is America, so if people are inclined to drop $10k into a smart, then go for it!!!!

Hey guys!

Thanks for the kind comments. They are great looking wheels and the body kit looks clean.

We try to do our best and offer a wide range of products for Smart Owners. These are indeed the high end of the Smart Accessory line and are priced in line with their other products. They may not be for everyone, but there are some folks like want the top of the line stuff for their Smart. This is something for those individuals.

Some people spend in excess of $10,000 for wheels and body kits, while others spend a couple of hundred. We value all our customers and will try to offer products that will please a variety of tastes and a variety of budgets.

We are working on some unique Madness products, but they are still in development.

Thanks everyone! :-)
