3 more pics with the new rims

was out driving today and decided to pull into this empty parking lot for a few more pics with the new rims. i got wheel locks for them today. and am slowly saving up for a paint job. the front is kinda messed up which makes me wonder if i should get a bra.

im gonna be changing the cardomain page and deleting a bunch of pics from there, since almost all are old and show what the paint job USED to look like.

i'm really liking the look of those rims on thirdgens. it'd look even better in a 17", possible 18". if anyone made them in 17" that would be the route i'd take. i think they look muscular, thus adding to our already muscular cars.

thanks for the comments guys. my first choice of course would've been the Ronal firehawks but that was way too much money (plus tires). i like the fact u dont see these too much, much easier to keep clean and way better than stock formula rims.

and i agree they would be perfect if they came in something bigger than 16's.

so those are 16x8's on a stock thirdgen rear?
They just look like they stick out kinda far is all, not in a bad way though, I like the stance.
