hey man, its looking damn good. i think they match much better with your titanium silver color rather than my silver grey. put some spacers on the front and the rear and you'll be mean on these streets! it was great doing business with you!

What ever you do, don't get rid of the old rims yet. The old rims make the car look more grounded and solid looking. Examples like this and many more are the main reason that does not compel me to take chances on new wheels without thinking about new coilovers, spacers, fender rolls and better photoshop enhancing skills and driving the car extra carefully. LOL
Medik13, your wheels look really good with the car. I know you went through a lot of wheels and experiementing before you pulled the trigger on those. Or did you improve your your photoshop enhancing skills? Just kidding!!! lol
Anyways, if you subjectively like them, that's all that matter.
FWIW, the journey to mods requires the skills to spend without over analysing; and change without looking back at how much you already spent. Good luck to you, man.
All and all, there are a lot of good members here who provide very good info.

Thanks for the comments guys. I will have to shoot some more pics of the new ones. To be honest, looking at only the pics, I think they look terrible. However in real life they look 10x better.
But, oh well to each his own. After modding every car I have owned, I have come to the realization that you can't please everyone.....so I now just try to make them all appealing to me.
