Asanti takes rim bling to a whole new level

If you thought the $1.4 million Bugatti Veyron was incomprehensibly expensive, think again. Lexani’s elite sub-brand Asanti last week at SEMA unveiled the word’s first diamond-encrusted rims. According to Forbes, the 1,100-carat rims will sell for $1,000,000 per set, including a “free” Bentley GT. We’re sure buyers will be glad to know that “when you factor in the cost of the Bentley, you’re really only paying about 850 large for the rims.” The wheels, measuring 22-inches in diameter, were also on display on a Rolls-Royce in the booth. They can be ordered with sapphires, rubies or any other gem a prospective owner desires. “This year, no other company offers real diamonds in their wheels, except us,â€? sales manager Cynthia White said. “We’ve sold a set to [rap music mogul] Master P and he’s helped us with the design of them,â€? White said.

Wow. Innumerable numbers of people have been killed and numerous governments toppled. Near 50% unemployment of black males in NYC and the best rich black celebrities can do is spend 1 million on diamond encrusted wheels.
