    Is that a multi-pc wheel? Regardless, don't do it. Keep searching, my friend........those look terrible.

    Re: New rims maybe!!!!!!!!!!

    they remind me a lot of my rims. Not sure why guys are saying they are ugly. I think quite the opposite. I am VERY picky on rims and settled on these cause I did not see anything else I liked on the car:

    Re: New rims maybe!!!!!!!!!!

    I like them too. I would leave the lips polished to get some contrast between the black center and the black car.

    Re: New rims maybe!!!!!!!!!!

    I would test fit them first - before having them sent out for refinishing / powder coating. Also, the staggered setup might wreak havoc with your center diff, if the rolling diameters between the rear wheels and the fronts differ. 2% difference is the most you can get away with IIRC.
