Nice ride, but yeah, those blingtastic wheels gotta go. They actually make your car look cheaper. Stick with some wheels that have more of a racing/performance inspired design.

Nice ride. Shame that digital cameras cannot capture the 'true' color of SOM.

They don't look all that bad on your car. They're not anything I'd buy for my car, but they're ok.....
