Check out these unhinged Forgiato ‘Cactus Jack’ rims

The Mercedes-Benz G-Class counts among the world’s most luxurious performance SUVs, and its owners often go out on a limb to make their ride appear unique. Here’s an unusual way to achieve this, suggested by Forgiato.

As far as we know, U.S.-based recording studio Cactus Jack Records was the first to ask for this particular wheel design. What appears to be a snazzy solid-metal roller is actually a normal forged rim hidden behind a brushed decorative cover. Stylish? Yes, absolutely! Practical? Perhaps not as much, given the lack of air cooling for the brakes. In fact, there is a small air opening, but it remain open whether it is sufficient for proper cooling.

The exclusive Forgiato Cactus Jack set comes in sizes ranging from 20 through 22 and 24 to whopping 26 inches across. If you are interested in a cheaper alternative, search car parts shops for Moon Caps.
