Boyd Intruder rims my attempt at photoshop

Well what do you think. Do these rims "fit" my car styling wise? I tried my best to make them about 17" in size. (photoshop neophite )

The front wheel is too far to the left in the fenderwell. Needs to be centered up a little better. I don't feel like the wheels set the car off. Just my opionion though.

The second set that were photoshopped "fit" the best but are getting to be played out... IMO

Go for the Boyd's they'd look great, the ZS's are like TT2's I think, too many people have them.

I changed both photoshops a bit and darkend rims a touch to blend better with shadows and tinted windows to the level I plan on doing them.

Go for the Boyds! I think they look really nice on your car and its an original look. I'm a big fan of a more unique car with rims that no one else has, see my sig.

Personally, I think the ROH ZS looks better on your Formula, but the Boyd rim is more individual. I get tired of seeing the same aftermarket rims like TT2s, and even Firehawks now, even though they look great.

I personally have my eyes on the boyd coddington "Tuned" its a pretty common styled rim, but rarely seen on a thirdgen, besides CrazyHawaiian's and CarNDriver's old Camaro.

If your not stuck on the 17s you can get some crosslace wheels and paint the inside of them the same color as your car but leave the lip of them chrome but if your diggin the 17s, I'd say go for the Boyds.
