"The hidden valve improves obviously the general impression and the design of the beautiful light metal rims. Thanks to its special construction, the valve is protected from the theft, the rim is easier to clean and a loss of pressure by sabotage is avoided. The hidden valve is placed in the hole of the normal valve and does not exceed the surface of the rim. The top of the valve in design "screw" is hardly noticed and it is taken for a component of the rim. To modify the pressure of air, you just release the screw of cover and then screws the provided adapter. Then, you can add or remove air as with a normal valve."
Hopping this explanation is clear enough

That costed me, all together (rims + tyres + valves + azote + mounting - discount ) CHF 2'900.- corresponding to USD 2'240.00
More precisely,
the 2 front rims : ~ USD 540.00
the 2 rear rims : ~ USD 572.00

Cosmos,
Could you take a few pictures from more of an angle so we can get a better look at the awesome lip on those wheels?
Thanx
