We need a better picture, from that angle they look kinda bad, but I think they would look good from another angel.

Three spoke rims aren't really my thing. But the important thing is whether you like the rims or not because you are the one driving the car.

BBBBBBBBBLLLLLLLLLLLLLAAAAAAAAAAAAAUUUUUUUUUUGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am regurgitating right now, excuse me, while I rinse out my mouth. I need to wipe my face off now but oops, I'm outta paper towels, guess I'll use my shirt. Wait, I could use one of your wheels, mind sending it airmail, I need it quick! Since they are so light, it wont cost much for shipping! Don't over do it on the bubble wrap!

But, it's your car, you're the one who's gonna get laughed at!

Sorry dude, don't like them, but three spoke chrome rims just aren't my style on any car, especially a sports car. If you like them, keep em', and tell everyone else to suck it.

Damn, this is a tough crowd........

While three-spokes aren't my style, I don't think they look too bad.

The pics don't do it much justice either, turn up the resolution on the digi-cam/scanner
