It's a style thing, trying to make it look like you have wider wheels than you do. Get what you like, not what other people think is cool or thought was cool 3 weeks ago.
I plan on it. Just wasn't sure what all the talk on a lip is for. Now I know.

I am sure you'll pick a nice set of rims! Whichever ones you decide on will look good. I have faith in you!

I am letting the wife decide. She has the final say. After all, she did win them.

Yeah, sorry for making it sound like you would be influenced by what is trendy. I was really more trying to comment on the stupidity of what you see on here sometimes.

No. It is cool. No problems. I posted for a reason. Just looking for opinions. Everyone has one, then Juanita has her own.

I know. She'll be looking to kick my butt. It's ok, some woman or another is always after me, I'm used to it,

I'm just saying if this was a poll I think the gold would score an overwhelming victory.

That was funny.

Actually, she won them, so I am trying not to get in the way of her decission. It looks like we have it down to two wheels. One is not available until April or May, they are that new and nobody has them. The other could be in about 1 week .

I think we are leaning to the fresh new rim. But, like I said, she won them it is her decission (not to mention, it is her car too. I may have taken claim to it, but it is her car too.). I know she will do a good job. I like the new rim and the gold, but she does not like the gold. She thinks it looks ghetto. "We may live there, but it does not mean we need to look like it."

Thank you everyone for your opinions. You guys are all great!
