Nice, very nice! The black wheel with chrome lip sets off the red nicely, along with the black edging on the spokes; keeps the red from being overwhelming. Well done!

Not bad. Personally I think they would have looked better in black or silver paint.

Nice choice on tires though, PS2's.

No real reason to crush the guy over his choice of wheels. They wouldn't be my first choice, but I could see how some guys might like them.

As long as he is happy with them, that's all that really matters.

THey Are 19's in the front and 20's in the back ... the back rim is 11.5 with a 325 tire on it... i lowered the car all the way around but i had to lift the back a little bit because if u look closely at one of the tire pics you can see that the fender was rubbing and the tire was tucking... love ur comments about the paint job though that i must be from florida .... i just wanted to have something different... i think just painting the rims all red or black would be doing what every body else in the world does when the paint their wheels

If you dont want the replies, both good and bad, then dont post the question....

Having said that, I think your car looks amazing. Great choice.
