Cool

Looks great amy011079! I think dark wheels on light colored cars are very classy. And I like the split 5 spoke design that shows some lip.

This car came standard with 17-inchers. With 19-inch wheels, if you still got 45-series tires, you may not have the same outside tire diameter. Have you checked your speedometer and odometer lately to see if they are off now? If you didn't put in correction devices, they may both be reading too low. The factory may not honor a warranty claim like this.
I'm not knocking your wheels....they look nice......but when you change tire/wheel sizes from stock, you sometimes have to make other adjustments.

Good luck with them.

thisguy - thanks!

mmarshall - i can't remember what size the tires are for some reason, i will have to remember to check. but either way, with 19in wheels i am going to be off somewhere. i can't go too low profile or i will screw up the rims. if they were 18s i probably wouldn't have too much of a problem correcting it. what sort of correction devices are you talking about? i haven't heard of anything that i could use to fix that problem except for altering the tire size to match the stock measurements. thanks!

Great wheel color scheme for your car. Very clean. Reminds me of the style I did with my Diamond White Pearl Solara back in the day...silver finished lip with gunmetal spoked rim.
