Ricer??? You must not know the meaning of ricer if you think gold rims is rice. I didnt know Volks were considered rice

Default maybe i just dont get the whole gold rim thing...

...i said no, but thats just my taste...i really just dont get it.

EDIT: okay, i looked at the BMW pics with the gold rims that someone posted, and i thought to myself, "hmmm, that looks pretty cool." i liked those rims better than the ones that you are yay or naying though. i wouldnt get them myself either, but at least i kinda get the gold thing a bit more. it took me a while to get the black rims thing too.

Its nice to see someone fessing up to a NO, its all good though. I've always liked gold rims, to me its something about it don't know what it is, one of the main reason I'm choosing these rims is cause I got an awesome deal on them. The rims I want cost 5grand, so for now that's just a bit much, even for me. The rims on the BMW are obviously better, they're DPEs! Haha if I had the money, or anyone as a matter of fact did, than buying a bad as$ set of rims would be no prob. But in a way I'm actually happy about the choice for a few reasons, it was a good deal, they are easy to care for, they're forged and they're Volks!
