That looks cool. I really like the wheels,and as a rule I don't like black ones. Those like good on the car. Nice.

Yea i didnt like it at first but it grew on me. I'm gonna go a little bigger once they are worn out to try and get rid of that look.

bling bling! watch out for pot holes...speed bumps..cracks in the highway...etc.
he's running 315's out back, so i'm pretty sure he is using the big lip on those rims

I applaud you for being different and not being a follower. Anybody can copy another person or just go with the status quo. I'm glad you didn't go with bullits, fr500s, saleens, etc. Looks great to me.

How do you know it's the front rim? Judging by the positions of the tires in all three pictures, the one with his finger in the lip should be his back rim.

Yea i mis-quoted the wrong damn picture .... the pic with my finger is the rear...the fronts arent too far away from that size lip though This is the first time I can actually hook with street tires, the 315's do wonders. I actually tweaked my back end a couple days ago and to make matters better I think my fuel pump is goin out. It was a little too bling for me at first but they grew on me, especially when I give my self whiplash.
