They're a little gaudy for me, but the important thing is whether you like them if you're considering buying them. wink.gif

i wouldn't put them on my car. But that's me.

Do YOU like them? Make your mind based on your opinion. Just like my shopping kart handle spoiler. laugh.gif I love it, and that's all that matters. biggrin.gif

I'd have to go ahead with a thumbs down on that one too, but it really is a matter of what you think and if you like them.

Kev, i reckon these are more suited to a seriously modded car, probably a gen 7.

Plus your missus will string you up if you get them, no way even a woman wouldn't notice something had changed there biggrin.gif

Oh man, i'm sneakin a turbo system by my chick. Funny part is that my gal cleaned the DP, turbo, & exaust manifold with a tooth brush the other day. (because it was dirty and smelled bad) Then told me to get my IC and Oil Pan (called em a "Fence-y thing, and smelly-pot") and told me to take em to the car, wash em, or throw em out. laugh.gif She had no idea what the hell anything was. I love girls. I wonder what she'll call the gauges when i bring those home next week.

Well you know the 3S oil pan with the return line on it would make a rather ingenious dual action chamber pot in the meantime laugh.gif
I'll leave you to imagine what's in my mind on that one wink.gif

In spanish it's called a "Nica" witch is what i call my sister-in-law; because it's short for Veronica. laugh.gif

And it's not really so much sneaking... thinking about it now, thats probably not the best word... as said, not like she gives a damn, just as long as i change her breaks and oil, and cook dinner(because she cant cook at all) then it's all good for me. biggrin.gif

It's not just you guys that are sneakin' stuff by. . . just this morning the g/f said something to me about how she finds receipts sometimes and knows I'm out buying **** up. Thing is, the stuff she finds receipts for are usually components to aid in the functionality/installation/whatever of the thing I'm flying under the radar with.

I've had my JDM fogs on since last Friday now, and she still hasn't noticed! I wonder if she'll notice when my headlights are somehow magically brighter than they were the last time we drove in my car at night?!? laugh.gif It's all good though, I think she just kind of blocks this stuff out since sometimes it's all I talk about. She kinda tunes me out I think, cause it's like I'm speaking Greek to her!

JK!!

Okay, Back on topic. kevstir, if you buy these rims, you need to sneak them by your girlfriend. biggrin.gif
And if you do go with em, can i reccomend doing some ricer mods to your car to make the flare blend together? I dont use rice in a bad way, because i'm all about it! biggrin.gif Rice is FTW tongue.gif and i dont care what anyone has to say about it. smile.gif

But those rims would require one hell of a body kit to compliment them. And a few inch drop. All of witch can also be snuck by the girlfriend laugh.gif

That's kinda rude, don't you think? You could be a tad more diplomatic I should think.

I liked them when i first did the photoshop but im no so sure now.

as for Jan ( the GF ) she would notice anything i did to the car, no money for cloths and i get it hard lol ..

I do like them wheels but i see where you guys are coming from, my plan for the car is to keep it smooth and curvy just like the car is , but when i seen them wheels i thought hmm there different .

Kev

edit: steve he is called pedro now NOT SPUNKY lol biggrin.gif
