Yeah, the 2000 WS6 had the option for these twisted, three-spoke wheels sometimes also referred to as "salad shooters."

If I remember correctly, they are pretty damn rare.

haha it took me forever to figure out what they were. Finally I just connected the dots that everyone with 93-97's were selling them. I probably wasn't far from asking the same question

Wow. That was kinda rugged.

Salad Shooters are for the peeps who don't want 5 spokes like everybody else on the planet. I love my Salad Shooters.
