Default New wheels or stay stock? pics inside
I wanted to wait till i put the springs on to decide whether i liked how these wheels look on the car or to get a new set since the tires are shot. So i think i like the look of them but i want some feed back let me know what ya think.

I think it looks good....
But if you want new rims, get them..

But overall the car looks good as it is....

I would just keep them on if it was my car. If you do replace them, I'd keep the same theme (black w/ chrome lip).

Cut the rears and make them wider and be done with it. It looks good as is.

first two look pretty good.

Keep the stockers and widen them, if you can.
