Those wheels don't look bad IMO, some more pics wouldn't hurt. If you like them but aren't 100% happy with the fitment then spacers would be enough. If you're not happy with them anymore than spacers obviously won't fix that!

while ur at it lose the exhaust. Doesn't flow at all. Just sell it to me. lol

it depends on ur funds. Spacers are more cost effective compared to new wheels. If you can borrow a pair of spacers you may just end up happy.

I think the wheels look good
...although a more agressive stance would be nice!
