To buy, or not to buy......

Alright guys, I've been going back and forth with lots of ideas on my car and I think I have found the rims I want. What do you guys think? I am gonna go to a local shop and see if I can get a price later on today.

Yuck, maybe it's just the way they're photoshopped and they need to be bigger. But just don't look good to me.

Heh.... change of plans guys. Just got back from pricing them... apparently they only come in 18" and larger (too big for my tastes) and cost around $400+ each (too big for my wallet).

LOL. I wouldn't pay $400 for all 4.

Yea, I was kinda taken off guard by the price. I just thought to myself, "I hope they don't take any important appendages when they're done charging me an arm and a leg
