Default 20 inch Rays Lexion 401 Chrome Yay or Nay

Hey guys,

I was planning on picking these up to go with my VIP themed Black GS4 and wanted your opinion on these wheels. I know people are going to say that VIP should be 19's but that is why I am asking for your help on making this decision. I tried posting a picture of the wheels but failed. If anyone that knows how to post a pic can help me out that would be great.

Thanks,
Fame

I dont think the wheels are vip , but they may look nice if your car is dropped. Here is a picture I stole from the 3gs section

I was going to have the face redone to a brushed aluminum look with a polished lip. Let me know what you guys think. I though it was VIP minus the chrome. Let me know what you guys think if not I will put them up for sale or trade.

For the money you are gonna spend to strip the chrome, brush the face and polish the lips (1-piece wheel; harder), then it would cost as much as a much better set of 3-piece wheels. Keep on searching! That's part of the (great) experience of car modification.
