Default How do you like these wheels on a SC?

18x8.5, polished

They belong to a friend of mine. Tried them on today.
I have to say they look better in person.
What do you think?

Sorry for the bad quality pics...used my phone

Not bad. They look a little V.I.Pish, but not bad overall.

Yeah, they look more like they belong on an LS - but as long as you like them, that's what matters.

If you are paying >$600 for them I would pass...

It feels outta place for me unless you have a kit and you're slamming it.

I would like them with a good drop, and maybe a spacer in the back.

They're decent, if the spokes were straight instead of being flared, they'd look better.

I'm not feeling it either. Not my style, Looks like it goes with some candy paint and a LIFT kit or something lol.

They look kind of stylish with the black paint. If they were spaced out with a lower drop I'd say go for it.

I like the rims, get the candy paint! Forget the lift.
