Default New Wheels

I'm looking at these rare wheels..., given the pin stripping on my car and the red/black interior, what do you guys think? I'm still a bit up in the air.

Hmmm unique, but I'd have to see them on the car, in person.

Hmm they do look unique, and kind of cool. They do look a bit smaller than they are though, because the red stands out much more than the black.

Honestly dave, you can find much better looking wheels.

The only cool thing about them is the colour and the fact that they're rare.

Main thing I don't like about these wheels is because they look so small. I honestly don't see anything attractive here except the rare factor.

The offsets are super low, you're probably going to have to do a fair amount of fender work to make them fit. Plus, I think you can find a way better looking set of wheels for that kind of money.

I think 17s will look too small, unless you slam it

Cool wheels though...he said you will you need to refinish/reseal it, so add those costs to your budget if you go this route.
