I am going to buy these wheels, because I like them and they are a good price. I just want to get your opinions. I just messed around a little bit in photshop with the pics. Sorry, that they aren't that good of quality. I only spent like 2 minutes on them.

With the old (mismatched) wheels

With the new wheels What do you guys think?

Those wheels look like they are super high offset(+40 or higher). They will look good from the side, but realy crappy at any other angle, because they will be so sunk behind your fenders.

Lol just brought to my intention that both pictures are 98% the same except the rims(lol 2%)... Is it me or did he just used photo shop or something similar to make it look like he got new rims? Thats just retarded and makes me want to come over his house and beat the **** and jack his car.

I said in the text part of my post:

"I am going to buy these wheels, because I like them and they are a good price. I just want to get your opinions. I just messed around a little bit in photshop with the pics. Sorry, that they aren't that good of quality. I only spent like 2 minutes on them."

I never said that I bought the rims, or installed them for that matter. I don't want to sound disrespectful, but maybe if you tried reading the post before you started saying that kind of stuff, then you wouldn't put your foot in your mouth as much. But hey, the fact that you said that you were gonna take my car, I am gonna take that as a compliment (lol). Thank you for taking the time to look at some pictures though.

They are decent looking. I've never liked multispoke style though.

I don't think they look good in the back. The rear bumper rolls under at the back of the wheel well and the shape of the wheels adds to that making for a weak/weird looking stance. On the front, though, the front edge of the wheel well comes straight down and looks good IMO. Of course, if you are going for performance and they are the right size and lightweight...looks don't matter.
