It's Saturday... people are busy with weekend life. Give it a few days and you'll see more responses.

If I ignore the fact that I think the whole black-on-black thing is overdone, I hate fake wheel bolts on one piece cast wheels, and I don't like "universal" 10-hole wheels, then they look really good.

All that matters is that YOU like it!



Oh, and you need a new manicurist.

The only thing that gets me is that there is so much detail in the wheel (e.g., the bolts) and yet all of it is blacked out.

I think if you kept those bolts polished it would look really spectacular.

That's what ruins it for me. But the wheels are nice though and the drop is great, too.

Come on man, I was just having a little fun with you, didn't you notice the emoticons.

BTW, you posted on a public forum and asked for opinions. If you can't take the negative with a grain of salt, along with the positive, then maybe you shouldn't have asked. My opinion is just that... my opinion (right or wrong as you see it). As I said, all that matters is that you like it. I've had plenty of people question my double-stagger, but it works for what I was going for, so I ignore them. If I offended you, then I apologize. It was just my .02 based on my own personal likes and dislikes.

Keep up the mods, and as always, make sure they satisfy your personal desires, not those of other xB owners. If you like them, then YOU win!

I like the wheel style but think it will look better with the chrome bolts and red lugs. Just not a fan of the blacked out look.

i think it look really nice, but if you are going for murdered out look, gotta tint those windows, and smoke the rear lights... or do what i did with my TDI back in the day - fully blacked out car with dual angel eyes and red chrome housing :p
