They're not sporty enough, doesn't fit the look of a "sportscar".

Can You jack up your front right and put that wheel on and take a pic? Then we can compare with your avatar. They look good to me but I'm not really sure if I'll like them on the car or not. I'm more of a 5-6 spoke person. I would LOVE your wheels you got now it they where the same color as them wheels. Lol

Yeah thats how my 93 wheels are. The guy that I got my parts car from painted them black. I just haven't got around to making them silver. I almost just wanna wait until I can find a decent set of bigger aftermarket wheels instead of putting all this time into them.

yeah mike, i like the ones you have on now more....

im not a fan of the "chunkier" rims you showed.... they are "okay" but yours look sick.....

for the amount of spokes they have they seem... chunky, they wont flow well with the 2 imo




if you can get one of these guys to photoshop them onto your car you might change my mind ;-)
