theres so many wheels out there just look around a lot! i jumped from full faced to spokes to everything in between, in the end i sortof realised that provided i get good sizes, offsets etc i could probably get any of the 5-6 wheels i was deciding between and it would look sweet.
the VS-XX come with silver, gold, or chrome centres, maybe even limited edition black. gold looks nice on white, the colour is better in person that pictures. but VS-XX without aggressive offsets dont look as good to me

i say dump 1500 into cast 20s that are the style you like and then do other mods to the car also. bending a 250 dollar rim sucks a lot less than bending a 750 rim, at least it did in my experience.

I think that might be the first time I've ever seen that statement here. I'll trade you my tan interior!
Alot of people can't stand chrome and I won't deny them their opinion. I personally love a cleanly designed chrome wheel, maybe it's the attention wh0re in me
. I don't expect everyone to agree with me and I don't care for some things that everyone else seems to love but we all have different tastes. The thing that bugs me is when people talk about how heavy chrome wheels are and use that to dissuade people from buying them. Chroming a wheel doesn't add any more than 1/2 a pound, no way your gonna notice that difference when you're driving. Now there's alot of heavy cast wheels that happen to be chrome, but you get that same wheel in a different finish and it's still gonna be heavy, it's not the chrome's fault. End rant!
