There are a variety of mags available from drop rims to spoke wheels. These are mags that young men normally put onto their cars for drag racing or just to impress their friends. A drop rim is a style of mag that has the center of the wheel dropped towards the axle of the car. This type of mag will come with a five or six lug nut attachment to the car. Keep in mind that drop rims are very hard to clean as the indented design of the wall of the rim can cause the mag to collect all kinds of dirt.

These would require so much attention when cleaning. These mags are also available in black and silver.
