Honestly, I don't like them at all on your car. The chrome makes them look like cheap wheels. They are too busy looking, and too flat on the face to me. Probably look better in silver.

Default Sooo many choices!
Fair enough, I had a hard time deciding which to get...I hope this helps other in their decison. These are available in a varity of finishes such as polished, black coated, ect; Purchased through WestCoatCorvettes for $800.00 w/free shipping...pretty cheap! The pictures really don't do a lot of justice, they do look impressive in person. Maybe some of you would like some of their other wheels such as the Corvette Syders! Good Luck!

Meh, they're not for me. I think the chrome finish is clashing with your silver stripes...a silver finish on the wheels may have been better.
