Mercedes-Benz G-Wagon Tries On Dish Wheels, What Do You Think?

The Mercedes-Benz doubles as an extremely capable off-roader and a vehicle that the rich and famous love to be spotted driving around Beverly Hills. This G-Class has the wheels to turn more heads than most.

These wheels come from Forgiato and are dubbed the ‘Cactus Jack.’ As far as we can tell, they get their name from Cactus Jack Records, the record label founded by rapper Travis Scott. It’s fitting then that they are pictured on a G-Class as Scott was once the partner of Kylie Jenner, one of the Kardashian clan that has become synonymous for multi-million social media deals and their pimped-out G-Wagons.

Look at the rims of the wheels and you will notice they read ‘Don’t Read This And Drive.’ Wise advice.

We’re not entirely won over by the design but there is one key advantage these wheels have over most others. Cleaning. Whereas it can be a pain to clean each individual spoke of a wheel, it would only take a few seconds for someone to clean these wheels. You also wouldn’t have to worry about brake dust as all of it will likely gather on the inside of the wheel and not visible from the outside.

We want to assume that there’s a space between the edges of the rim and the dish section to dissipate heat, but just how much it helps, is anyone’s guess, especially with a vehicle of the size and weight of the G-Class that puts plenty of stress on these parts.

The rims are available in sizes 20″, 22″, 24″ and monstrous 26″. Prices over at Carid start from $1,571.82 a pop or from $6,287.29 a set
