How do you like the wheels? Don't mind how dirty it is. Haven't washed it for a little while. It was a little to get used to at first, but now I like them a lot! It's nice to have something different. I'm pretty sure not to many people have these. Not that they're rare or expensive or anything.

Well, at least it sounds like you're open to different things. Thanks for not flaming them and being modest.

They work on your box, but it's not something I'd roll on.

You should get the silver accents powdercoated to match the paint.

I had that same thought, don't know if I'd go through with it or not. Might be to matchy matchy for me. It's hard to visualize it. If I knew how to do Photoshop or even had the program I might attempt it and see.
P.S. You didn't vote. jk

QFT!

That's what really matters - for example, I may be the only person who likes the wheels on my box, but I'm the only person who has an opinion that counts.

Take care,
Tom

Thanks for all the votes guys. And for being honest and tactful about it. I really hate when people get on some forums and just completely flame a person for asking a question. And burstaneurysm, you really got me thinking about doing the purple on the accents again. This time around of thinking about it. I'm really liking the idea a lot better.

Yea, I think it would look pretty sweet.
Two other things... get a 10mm spacer in the back, it'll improve the look.
And... what happened to your side marker?

I got the OTG spacer in there. I really can't remember if it was 5mm or 10mm, stupid me. Do they even come in 5mm? I don't remember, it's been a while. I was wondering when someone would notice my side marker. I tried modifying it (internally) lets just say I failed miserably. So now I gotta go jack someones from a random parking lot. Not really, but I have thought about it, they're so easy to remove.

Look good on your color. Maybe, if your roads allow it, run a smaller tire.

Nothing wrong with the size of his tires.

That's the stock size tire. I wouldn't want to run smaller though. Living out in the country, you never know what's gonna be in the middle of the road.

They're not bad looking. I'd like to see the silver done the same color as your car though.

I would def hate to clean them though.

Nice to hear other people think the silver, done as BCP would look good. You guys have me thinking about it pretty hard. They are a little bit of a PITA to clean. Not to horrible though.

If a man hole cover and a meat grinder had a baby, then some one crapped on that baby, you'd have these rims.





YOu asked for it.

I don't care, I did ask for it. It's just a little hard to imagine those two put together. Thanks though, it's an interesting thought.
