lol....say all u want guys .....in my opinon i like em...to each his own man....iam not tryin to fool anyone into thinkin that their rims....i just wanted a different look for the steeelies. right now i cant afford rims...i actually was ridin on 18's but i had to give them up cause i've just started my apprenticeship as an electrician and the money is too tight right now. plus u have to see it in person, and honestly all i got today was compliments sayin that its a different look and its aight and no one has ever done it before......so its all good man

ok, honestly, cmon, your reppin Tdot/sauga and your Flip, you gotta get some wheels...haha...even stock 15s are better looking...your ride looks like you've been living in scarborough (no offense to those that live there, but they got some ghetto cars) too long...originality, fine your right, but i'd rather see Cdn Tire chrome hubcaps on there instead....hah...seriously your asking for someone to scratch/key/spit/kick your car with those on...seriously from one FLIP to another "PUT YOUR HUBS BACK ON" ...and DO NOT CUT YOUR SPRINGS!!!!

yo man thats all that matters if you like the way it looks, but if your gonna ask others what they think about it, be prepared to take the feedback....why be so defensive when you asked in the first place? you didnt really think people were gonna be positive about this did you? haha anyways, good luck with it all, and check other toronto boards for others selling wheel/tire combos for pretty cheap...

damn, looks like i saw someone with the same "taste" as you, but this was worse, silver "lip" the rest bronze. it was bad. i pointed and laughed.

your car is rice because of the painted steelies not because it is STOCK. stock car = no rice.

i am begging you to please put your hubcaps back on!

and if you have kids and are married, maybe modding is not for you?

Well since ignorance is simply lacking knowledge then OK. I've never sat down with you and your painted 14" wheels long enough to learn that.
