Looks great. IMO, I would not put a body kit on it..... It looks great the way it sits..

Thumbs up Nice rims.

What is your tint %. I am thinking of getting mine tinted but after looking at your car I think that is a perfect tint. Also let me know if you notice more road noise than before, I mean when you had the stock wheels. I want to upgrade my wheels too, but don't want to compromise the ride quality and road noise. It will help if you could give a feedback. The car looks hot!!!! For sure

Great choice of wheels. I'm a bigger fan of chromes, but your set up is hot and perfect.....you made a good choice.

I say drop it a little more and with a kit or lip it will look even hotter.

Beau the wheels look GREAT! I knew you would be happy when I changed the brushed finish!! Looks awesome and the aggressive fitment is dead on.

Enjoy!

Love the look of the rims, ride height is fine but if you want lower then that's cool too. Agree with those that said you should get clear side marker lights. Your tint looks just about the same as mine--20% all around except the front windshield, which is stock.

Thanx BLK. the house is pretty much my wife's baby, the car is mine. She's responsible for decorating, paint color, landscaping etc. Although, I did get to pick the color of the granite countertops in the kitchen. Guess what, they're black too!
