Definitely... gold is crazy soft, the wheels would have to be 60lbs to not bend going over a speed bump.

These wheels are rose gold plated, gold plating for wheels has been done for a while.

I don't think those on the murci up top are gold plated, they look painted. Anyone got any closer pics of em?

there's a set of gold-plated VS-XX going around in the states, and on INGS FD2R in Japan. I wanted to gold plate my rims before too for shits and giggles, but couldn't find a place local and do not want to send my rims back to China
