I know there are alot of people here that like those wheels...I just think they look a little ghetto for some reason. I can't quite put my finger on what makes it look that way to me...at least they are different from the rest of the crowd

I'd like them more without the rivets. I dont care for wheels with exposed rivets.

They look good outside of that. Pricey as hell, but what Foose wheels arent pricey?

I feel the same way about them.Just cant figure out if its the shape of the spokes or the rivets but they are nice wheels just seems like they should be on a cadillac sts or a navigator or something like that.
