i disagree about the polished lip, i think it looks pretty sweet. the wheels do look very nice of your car. i want a teal RS, just tryin to find one in nice shape up here is kinda tough cuz they usually want a lot for it. and as mentioned b4 the brakes need some attention

the green/teal isnt too bad with those wheels. i like the darker greens myself with black wheels like that but i cant deny that the car looks GOOOOD.
not bad at all man! especially with the black drop top.... those wheels compliment that

DO NOT go with metallic midnight blue unless you want to clean the car daily! I had that same exact color on my Firebird and as nice as it was most of the time, it was a constant struggle to keep it clean. Just my two cents.

I am also a sucker for black rims with polished lips. The teal goes nice with the black rims, I just sold irocbirdbuilder my old GrandSport wheels and he got rave reviews of the new wheels (color combo).
The car looks sweet!!

Some brake paint or POR-15 is a good quick fix. But otherwise, the wheels look good.
