I'm not a big fan of Foose wheels, but for some reason those kind of work on your car. I'd prefer a more dull shine like a fully polished finish or even a polished lip with a center section to match your hockey stripes but even then it would be alot more work to keep up with the polished lip. Overall its a good looking car.

actually in about a month or two i was going to get the center sections of the wheels either painted or powder coated to match the stripes, so i was thinking the same thing

ya i know, they are a little to blingy. my original choice where the grey ones but they had these in stock and gave me a smoking deal on them, so like i said in the last one they're going to get painted or powder coated to match my stripes within the next couple months
