For a street car, why would anybody drop that kind of money on a magnesium wheel? I go to a local car show and a guy has a Factory 5 Cobra. It is about as far from original looking as you can get. Last year I was talking with him and almost everybody that walked up asked..."is it real?". It is bright yellow with a modern interior, stereo, dual roll bars, automatic trans, 5.0l with FI, and some type of aftermarket 18" wheels. 95% or more of the population cannot even pick a Cobra out that looks somewhat real. Is anybody really going to notice your real magnesium wheels? Would they even care if you told them?

Just curious.
