I like my wheels because they show the brakes.

The ones you photoshopped seem to take a lot of attention away from the rest of the car as a whole. The first thing I saw when I saw the pic were the wheels. Then the blue. Then the body shape.

With the wheels less busy it distributes what catches the eye and allows the car as a unit to be appealing.

i like them. if they are a multi piece wheel with a polished lip and machined face it would look pretty sick, especially once you drop your car!

too much going on for my taste and i fear the wheels might look a little flat which means it's not aggressive enough (granted that's a result off photoshop and not the wheels). Please show us a picture of the wheel or at least give us the make and model of that wheel so we can take a closer look at the design and finish.
