SEMA: Ostrich Wheels

img_0091.jpg

Alligator-skin shoes (or crocodile-skin shoes, depending on how you look at it) have long been a staple of the self-respecting Detroit pimp. The new age pimp, however, has been shifting to ostrich skin as of late (as evidenced by a recent WINDING ROAD independent poll taken at City Slicker). It was no surprise, then, when we found a set of 26-inch blue ostrich-skin wheels from Dropotaro at today's SEMA show. The split six spokes carried a matching blue Cadillac Escalade. We did not get a look at the interior, but our best guess is that ostrich skin can be found throughout.

Overhead at track day: "He must be drivin' fast, it's smells like chicken!"

That is to say, when the wheels heat up due to brake heating, the skins will cook.
