We all know there's some lovely rims out there, and some real howlers. My challenge to you lot is...
design your own rim!
For those that can, cad programmes are fine, photoshop too if you want to, or just a pencil or even an etch a sketch for that bumpy ride look!
Just the one rim, and some words explaining what you're after style wise if you want.
Can RR cook up a classic rim?

I tried this once in CAD when I was bored. It was really hard so I gave up....

Another I came up with a little while ago. Not quite so retro but would look quite good on something big and American I thought!

Top challenge!! shame i have no imagination when it comes to stuff like this... maybe you could stick a teddy in the middle of a rim...
Ah, ProDesktop... why the hell did they teach me that at school, when it has so many bugs and is not used at all in industry! just because they cant afford the autocad licenceing fees.....

Other than something outrageously ugly/badly proportioned for the sake of it, this is really hard as pretty much everything has already been done, hasn't it?

Indeed, same here! I can use it, but its terrible. I'd like to learn solidworks really. Why stop at wheels?

Adam No. I meant one wheel rather than people thinking they should knock up a whole car or photoshop extraviganza. Trying to keep it simple for people who only want to use a pencil. Myself I can't use any 3D apps so I'm using illustrator!

mine would be polished outer circle, with 5 wide flat curving outwards spokes, with enough between them to squeeze your hand through, spokes in glass black and its a split rim also, with the centre of the wheel being exactly in the middle of the depth of the wheel (whatever offset that is!) and available in 4x100, 4x130 and 5x100 woohoo
