A little on the small side. A couple inches bigger and I think they'd look more at home. Props for being different

Small man for that style. Maybe 18's in that style would be cool. I'd honestly keep the stockers on in this case..

Not feeling that. That style needs a bigger wheel. Agree with the suspicious used car lot background.

For something like that, I wouldn't go any smaller than what Chaman has on his T/A. I mean they don't look bad but I would have waited and saved up more money to get something with better looks. Just my $0.02 though.

Nowhere in his post does it say ANYTHING about the car being for sale, MAYBE you should mind your OWN business, Mr. 55 posts wait till you've been here a while before you try and stir the pot.
