they're not tooo bad but i think the rears are too big. IMHO 18s are pushing it and 19 is bigger than it really needs to be.

i like it just the way it is but it will look even better when its lowered. Im going to buy some hamanns. 20x11 rear and 19x8.5 front and my car is lowered with a 1.8 kit which sagged to about a 3 inch kit which i love!! plus racing shocks lowered it a little to get the 3 inches on accident. i wish my car was black but its stupid red. I mean who wants an insanely fast red sports car that the top comes off of!!!! come on!!

I had been wanting to see an 18/20 combo on an Fbody. Not real big on that style though. Something just doesn't quite hit me right. They look good size wise. 19/20's would probably look better. Oh..and twinkies are 22's, not 20's.

Sorry man just not feelin them a little too bling for me. And I totally get what your saying about your age relating to your taste. When I was 17 I thought WW body kits and lots of "hey, look at me" decals were awesome, now at 23 I have completely different tastes.

Here is a 18/20" combo..... I like the car but the wheel diff is too great, 18/19 or 19/20's would look better IMO.






To the topic poster, your wheels look nice just not my choice but who cares it's your car right?
