I'll give you $400 to take those feckin' stupid things off your car!
Jesus wept, they look like bugger all squared.
And no, it wouldn't look any better if you dropped the car on its ****, it'd just look even more grotesque.

Seriously man, to each his own but those do not fit well. They stick out a ton. Keep the stock wheels on!

I'm happy for you that you agree with me, but that's beside the point.
Did you not get from the first few words of my post, it was all said with one's tongue lodged firmly in one's cheek?
Everyone else seemed to cotton on that I was ribbing the OP.

Do they not do banter in Louisiana?

A little harsh but it did make me chuckle.
