Re: New Rims

well ive had em for a good 3 months now and ive had no problems at all. I was expecting the ride to be maybe rough, but its actually better and these rims are a little lighter than my stock RS wheels.

everyones going to hate on him, those wheels look like they belong on an escalade, 20" rims will do nothing but hurt the way the car handles, those rims especially dont look good on a sports car, and ya, at the very least they fit right.

Re: New Rims

Sporty cars shouldnt have ostentatious rims. That's all I have to say.

When's the last time you saw a race car with blingin rims? To me style comes with something that looks functional.


That said, at least they're not spinners.
