Well, 2K USD on those is the US price maybe, but over here in Europe I'd say 1200€ max in pristine condition.
They are very cool, but they aren't thát rare.

Sooooooo,

i've been lazy.., still have to take one of the centers out.., but they 're so shitty to split...
Tried to split the lips and barrels but had no luck...
How do you guys do this...

Just strip the clear off one of the lips...
That clear is some heavy shit, 4 times stripper, and still some spots left...


Sanded a li'l bit with 400...


Oxidation...


Scratch

How does this even happen?

Gettin' there...


I hope to be more productiv this weekend/next week...

to split a lip from a barrel I cut a 4x4 about 1/2" shorter than the space between the lips where the tire fits.

I stick the 4x4 between the rim lips and use a prybar to lever the lip from the barrel. I lever a bit and stick a screwdriver between in the crack and move the 4x4 and lever again in a different spot, jamming the screwdriver in further ...moving around as needed to split the parts.

I have done this with the wheel sitting on the ground or with the barrel clamped by the lips to a metal workbench.

worked fine with a BBS and an OZ wheel. no heating or an oven or going nuts with a hammer.
