Wheel Display/Stands?
I'm looking for, what I think are called, tire/wheel displays....
Know what I'm talking about? At shows, most sponsored cars use them to display tire brands and such. They are little stands that go under (or tuck under) the car's wheels....
Anyone know where to buy? I hope I posted in the right place (sorry MODS).

yeah i found them too. but i wont use them.
what i might end up doing is painting my dunlop stands black. they are all black with the "dunlop" logo in white. so im sure i could sand/prime/paint/clear, but i dont know how long that would last.

they are plastic, and they can flex. if you drive over them, your brake them.
you slide them over the edge of the tire, well more or less. push them onto the edge of the tire... with force if you have a large diameter tire. it was a bish to get them on and off with my 19"s. now i just want 2 because im going to take a wheel off my car to display my BBK at shows, and i need the stands to support the wheel thats off the car
