Which makes sense given the Pure Blood moniker, as distasteful as that connotation is.You mean the razor goes before the handle?

They are indeed a bit loud, but I will swap out the red seats sooner or later. I cancelled my original order of blue with black interior when they announced the V6 was going to be released sooner while the i4 was nowhere in sight. Then the i4 was delivered in late 23 so I picked up someone else's order with less than ideal colors.

The razor wheels would be badass.

Believe it or not... this was top 2 finalist during the decision making process.

Maybe I'm odd, but I've always liked Alfa Romeo wheels such as this:
I wonder how they'd look on an Emira.

that's spicy, I don't believe they're offered in 20" and or have the right offset for the Emira, but man, maybe I'll look for something similar. Thank you!
Rotiform has similar wheels, usually used on lambos.

If you can live with an involved design process like I did, I'm sure it can be done.
Looks good
Looks amazing. I love the new wheels. Great work!

Correct. The CAD designer basically had t draw a front wheel and a rear one, then "flip" them into the opposite side.
Good, that’s the proper way to do it
Not a fan of directional wheels if they don’t flip to keep direction consistent both sides of the car.

What was helpful was that the spoke pattern was essentially CNC'ed into the chunk of alloy cylinder after the forging process, so it wasn't too much work to just flip the 3D model. In contrast, cast wheels need pre-made modes so there is more incentive to cut corners.Good, that’s the proper way to do it

The wheels do look absolutely amazing
Would love to order a set if they would go out for sale to public one day
