Default Snowflakes on 4th Gens

For those of you wondering what they look like, here is an ebay auction with a few different angles showing 17" snowflakes on a 4th Gen. I remember a few previous threads where people could not find any pix. Hope this helps!

I've got a friend that has a set on his 01 WS6. He's doing a Modern Bandit car with gold decals on the black car. Not to bad.

Needs some gold paint imo. I would also like the rears wider. Other than that, I like em.

They do look flat compared to the 2nd gen Snowflakes, but that's because the 4th gen offset is so different. Still, I like them and would consider getting them for my 2000 if they came in gold. The price doesn't seem to bad until you realize lug nuts and center caps aren't included and that will add another $450 to the total price.

Year One's prices on their website are $749 for a set of 4 wheels, or $1195 for 4 wheels with lugs and center caps.

I was interested in these also. I contacted Year one for the 17" wheel weight. They were around 27-28lbs out of the box per the customer service rep. Thought I would add this.

I don't have a WS6, but my 2000 is a NBM convertible with tan top and interior. If they release them in gold, I'm seriously considering getting a set.

They don't look quite as good as I'd hoped with the 4th gen offset, but they're not bad. 27-28 lbs seems a bit heavy, but I guess that's to be expected.
