Don't Waste your Money! (I don't have them but I'm sure they are Heavy,the Hex's look like they are 14mm and It's Hard to get your Tires Glued to Alum wheels)
Now if you Have to have some Metal Rims Look into some 17mm Beadlocks.......... Ti Jumbo Beadlock

Get some Axial 8-spoke rims on the 40-Series tire of your choice(Axial Cubez could be cool.. - or Big Joes if you wanna' be really monstery...), and then spend $100 on a custom airbrush body.... THAT would be bling people could see at least.. Those wheels don't even look that cool, and would probably just get scratched up and dusty and nobody would even know they were alu..
ps.. Actually, for bling wheels, look up the Axial beadlocks.. They have all kinds of styles and colors of alu rings you can put around them...
Mine are pretty basic and all black on my Savage - but you can get red or blue or green or whatever, which together with chrome wheels would be pretty bling....:

Google Zielke racing.. They have bods on e-bay.. Also just go to e-bay and type in "LST body" or "Zielke" under shops and you'll probably find something.. There are several custom painters out there who would paint something up according to your preferences I'm sure....
