Think they would look interesting on a retro themed car. Can someone do a photoshop?

Not a fan, but they do look better on the cars than off.

hmm, thumbs down from me. But if you're doing a "theme" car, maybe they'll look better when they're matching something else.

IMHO, some wheels that looked OK in their original 15" sizes, just don't translate well to an 18-20" size.....

I'm not a big fan of the billet Honeycombs, but YO has recently come out with cast Honeycomb wheels I think look much better. Unfortunately, they don't have them in offsets for 4th gens.

The billet ones do come in sized and offsets for 4th gen, but I haven't seen any yet. I don't like the white centers, though. If I went with them, I'd go with all silver like on the Admiralty blue TA in their pics.

I think the snowflakes could be pulled off on a 4th gen a lot easier.

I would even put them on a second gen. That price really puts them in niche market of a niche market.
