Cool. Just needed an honest opinion. it took about 8 hours to paint them, so my friends would never say I need new rims. I appreciate it.

Ohh, okay, I got ya.

But yea if your going for looks get some 16's or 17's. I actually think these rims would look better if the car was lowered a bit.

^^Congrats on 800



That's really what i wanted to hear. I need to get new rims, but i couldn't convince myself to do so unless i tried to do a DIY and it failed.

rims always add that nice exotic look and contrast the lines of our cars quite well, however you would soon find out how much of a pain in the ass it is to go with 17's. if you don't take care of 17's you're going to demolish them. your car will be really bumpy, and definitely heavier than stock.

i went for them anyways and now i'm paying my sweat off for it. sooo annoying calling these companies for a replacement rim and landing nowhere. nobody wants to sell me a single rim.

^^17's on my car are fine. Ride is the same..not bumpy or anything..I think its because my rims are light. Really just got to watch out for those potholes.
