Re: which rims??

well i was thinking if i use the silver ones i was gunna repaint them black with a red lip... just the silver 17s is a rough ride and the 16s are more smooth but i like the look off the 17s better

Re: which rims??

i dont like all black rims either...especially on silver. it makes me think of winter steelies. anytime i have my steelies on it reminds me of black rims.

i like the silver ones better too, but it looks like you need bigger tires on them. those look like 205/35? 215/45 would look way better because your car is stock height.

Re: which rims??

I Like Silver Ones.. I mean u can get the black ones dipped in another color at any rim shop not expensive, So that way u dont have to change the tires and have a smoother ride... What i would do...

Re: which rims??

They are both ugly, the style on the silver onces suck so i would have to go with the black ones if you had to choose one of them. All black rims on silver does not look good
