    Re: New Shoes.

    I think it would look a little better with a drop, at least in the front.

    Re: New Shoes.

    I think that the black lip with the tire's color and the black car kinda leaves a void of form. Your eye is drawn to the light colored pattern of the wheel and everything else dissolves into the background.

    They're not ugly wheels by any measure, but I think they aren't the best choice for a dark colored car.

    Re: New Shoes.

    More/better pictures needed. I think it would look ok with a drop, but it's definitely unique. I have never found that wheels with alot of openess to them look that great. It exposes all of the brake/rotor details which unless just cleaned usually looks awful. If the 5 spokes were filled in and flush with the fender it would look pretty sweet. Like the Volvo OEM wheels. Points for your uniqueness tho :)

    i don't know how i feel about them. for some reason they don't sit well with me yet i want them on my car. explain that one...

    maybe they should've made the small triangles at the ends silver as well?

    I like it, but I think you need to paint your calipers. I put the RS4 replicas on mine, and once I painted the calipers, it made a HUGE difference!
