I'm stepping out of this thread since the OP has to act childish after some non-positive remarks.

Who's that in your avatar? I think those wheels would look better with a black center and black out the rivets. The grey doesn't match anything on the car.

It's hard for me to find a wheel I like that's made by Chip Foose, this set isn't an exception. I dig the mans vision when it comes to cars but have no idea what he's thinking when it comes to wheels.

Too much roundness on the 4th gen to pull of such edgy wheels IMO. If the centers were black I would like it a lot better.
