lol, thanks. I spent a whole 10-min on that thing!! It was half serious/half messing around.

Try using this for a better idea on other rim choices:http://www.tirerack.com/upgrad...=2005

Good job brother. I think it would only look good if the car is red.

Joe you rock.

Thanks for the input guys. I think I get the idea of what it would look like. Actually I like the red against my color car. Its different, nothing common you'd see around too much. Any opinions on that??

It allll comes down to personal preference my friend

I am personally not a lover of black rims... I've seen the odd few with a chrome lip and they look good.

I have never owned nice chrome rims before (no I am not a whole blingy kinda guy) but chrome would be my first choice if I were ever to get aftermarket rims. I just love the way they look.

Check out the Members Rides area for some different ideas on rims.

I think the red lip rims you showed would be a first for me... never seen them on a G.

Good luck and let us know what you decide!

Red rims-- garish. If you run the colors through the color matching system at Lowes or Home Depot you'll see that they neither contrast well nor compliment each other (like a purple shirt with a green tie and orange pants-- yeah, I know this is extreme). Personally, I couldn't drive down the street in that color combo-- it screams loudly... look at me... please, won't someone pay attention to me (which is why we want to be different), and you don't want to draw attention for something others will shake their head at in disapproval!!!!

Good luck

If that's a real set of TE37's then I wouldn't care what color they were... TE37's are always sexy.

Yikes.... not good. Someone mentioned going more into the chrome, brushed look to better match or compliment the greyish tone. I think you would do well to reconsider that option. No red.... no solid black... no greens, blues, oranges, golds.... go basic on this car in terms of rim color.

Good luck!
