Take a pic of smoke billowing out of the rear wheel wells--smoky burnouts make ANY wheel look better! Anyways as far as my oppinion I wouldnt take them off a car I bought but at the same time I wouldnt purchase them to put on a car. If that makes sence.

Wheel design is cool, but I think it would look better other than chrome.

Agree if you must keep them, try black centers, keep the chrome lips

Definately not the worst I have seen but not the best. I don't really see a lot of wheels that I like for our cars. At least its not this killer combo I saw the other day on a "pimped" camaro.

Well, most of you don't like my rims so lets see what you guys are sitting on. Just to show me what some "good" rims look like.

Like everyone else who can't afford CCW's, Fiske, etc... I'm rolling on Z06's:



Never said I didn't like your rims, just said they would look THEIR (not the) best if the spokes were gloss black and the lips were still chrome

They're not as bad as I thought they'd be honestly, but I would've done 18s out back, 17s in front.

I don't mind them, they are alittle flashy for most people (I like the 19/20's if they are subtle rims). The main problem I have is the 2" difference, it is hard to match the tire sidewall heights front and rear with 18/20 combo on a Fbody, most front tires end up looking like they have a taller sidewall than the rear and that is a MAJOR no no when trying to make the car flow.
I run 19x9.5 w/ 275/30R19 in the front
and 20x12.5 w 345/25R20 in the rear
Sorry I don't have any good pics of a full car shot, but I have some wheel pics in this thread
