they're okay, but usually wheels that come with full caps aren't considered "import tuner wheels" which maybe wasn't the look you were going for. i give you thumbs up on the bling factor though.

Those are nice wheels, but....

I would never do it.

I've been there before, but now I never sacrifice function for looks.

The extra weight, the chrome, the VERY rough ride, for what? Bling? Please. After a few potholes that stop the conversation, maybe you'll agree...

I just put 18's on my AC today. TSW Vortex, Hypersilver. Tires are 245/45 18, Yokohama W4S all-season. (We get a little rain here in the Northwest.)

Smoothest ride I've ever had, but still firm. I'm in heaven. I'll try to get some pics.

In the meantime enjoy your wheels. I'd like to hear back in 6 mos. if you think it was worth it.

As you get older, I think you will find that where you go is more important than how you get there.

Very nice. With the white exterior gives it a classy look..not sporty but a nice luxo-coupe look. Post more pics with different angles..give us a good look..I'm partial to the white coupe.

Since Sacky didn't say it, I will. Those wheels are uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuugly!

Joking man! Wheels look nice if they are the wheels you want for your ride go for it. But like 08altima35

I like them, I think they are different than the usual type you see weveryone with these days. Nice choice, but they look like they are going to be a lot of fun to keep clean.

Thanks for all your opinions, I just wanted some feed back from other perspective views. I did not expect every one to like the wheels, but no one said they were UGLYYYYYYYYYYYYYY. Not that it would have matter to me one way or an other................. I like them.

As far as the ride................... not bad with the 20" wheels but after the eibach install,.... the ride smoothed out a bit............... not as bouncy as with the stock springs plus the high pitch chirp I heard in the back is gone.
