Default Wheels for my fiance!

Looking for some wheels for my fiance. She would love some gold wheels. ideally 17's and they need to come WITH rubber. She just bought tires for her stockies, so buying tires for summer wheels isn't in the budget. She would prolly consider 18's if they are gold as well.

Show me what you got.

She's a woman, so the most important thing to first recognize is that she is completely nuts in every single way possible.

Now that you recognize that, the next strategy would be:

1. Duck, cover your eyes, and hope she goes away or
2. Show her some pictures of wheels discretely on a car that's similar to hers in order to narrow down a potential purchase

Wheels are a big decision, so it might benefit you to include her in the decision making process... no matter how taxing that will be. And after you endure the hellish buzzing of her "rationalizing" each different wheel (because each wheel looks "cute" or glamorizes something trivial like a fuzzy steering wheel cover), you may or may not potentially have the go ahead to buy her a set of wheels. Good luck! Don't forget to cover your eyes and other important body parts!

:facepalm:

She is more than likely more knowledgeable about cars than 99% of the guys on this site.

She likes a lot of different wheels and just wants them to be gold and come with rubber as her tc is Crimson Mica and gold looks dope on it.

^ Where's your sense of humor? I really hope you didn't take me seriously.

I'd go with option 2: "Show her some pictures of wheels discretely on a car that's similar to hers in order to narrow down a potential purchase".
