Honestly, I liked your old ones better. Had sort of a VIP look to them.

If i had to choose between the two, then i'd have to agree.

As long as you like them though, i guess that's what really matters.

Looks good man , maybe add a 5mm spacer in the back if you can, and or a bit wider tires next time you go change them.

Damn...there's a lot of tough love in our Rotary Community! I say, if you like them then it's cool. For constructive criticism, you need spacers in the rear. Pics don't do wheels like these justice because I saw some similar wheels on a skyline and it really set it off.

to each their own with the rims. I liked the older ones though. and the headlight scoop. I think it is a homemade one.

It looks like your old wheels grew up and got a makeover I too liked the old ones better but the new ones arent that bad. They look good with your car. I agree the offset is wrong but its nothing some spacers cant fix. What size are those? 18s? Your car definately needs a lip to fill out the front end some more. Maybe some side skirts. Looks cool. Im sure your car has the power to back it up.

So why are you rocking a picture of an FC with big wheels in your sig?

I sense a lot of bandwagon jumping in this thread.
