I'm not a fan of those at all. Sorry. If you put wheels that big on your car, you need to slam it and at least have an offset that makes them somewhat flush.

I already saw those, but I don't want 17's. I want 18 or 19's.

i would like to have some 18"s as well. but i hate the majority of rims. i cant stand those cheapy turner style but there are only a handful that i like and i also like the Cobalt split spoke rims. and thats why i went with 20"s. and to have it flush i need at least 15mm spacer if i remember correctly. and this is what it looks like, basically (its PSd).

clearly the whole rim isnt painted... would you just lay cards on the silver part hoping it stays on and doesnt let any paint through?

Rims look badass, needs to be lowered though. Do the inserts in the middle match the paint job on the car? You can't really tell in the pics, badass if they do

yeah i prefer to not black out the car like everyone does with a black car. keeping the polished lip is what made the car difference from every other one.
