I like the rims. One thing I do no like is the way the wheel wells look with a low profile tire and lowered on the 430. The space between the tries and the wheel wells don't look so great to me. I don't think you can do much to avoid this if you lower the vehicle.

super clean. Are those a new modle of works? don't think I've seen those yet. They look very sharp on these big bodies.

This is a great look. I would just need a little more tire for these New York roads. Tastefully done.

I like the wheels, but the incorrect tire size doesnt look good.
