Agreed, the wheels look good, but get rid of those riced out rear tail lights.

Funny how the tail light garnish is getting the attention. I remembered a few years back window visors were "uncool", because some of the members say they are made for smoking truckers.

Since you guys hate it so much, here's a pic of mine. LOL

Just a quickie question, what made you go normal tire spec up front and "fat" spec in the rear? It kinda looks odd with such a fatter rear tire.

Either way enjoy the new rolllers!

Wow dude I've never really been a fan of step lips but those look real hot ,maybe its cuz of the offset and blk centers that really bring out the detail in the step lip. Congrats

I think the new wheels look great, especially how the black standouts against your silver car

Thanks for all the replies guys! Kind and unkind. To each his own.

I bought these as is from a guy locally. They only have about 1500 miles on them. I love them but I'm not sure if I am going to keep them. I'm leaning towards something like Iforged in either gunmetal or polished. I got a pretty good deal so I said what the heck why not. But you guys may be seeing these in the classifieds in a day or two.

As far as the tailight trim goes to each his own but the white gs photo posted above looks ok with the trim because it matches the chrome. i think op should go with black or smoke for his tailights and use the trim. I think it will look sick
