[jct_4628]

holy crap, how did you do that? They look insaine! What kind of paint did you use and how did you apply it?

[TsiTom]

Very nice!

[btleier]

they don't look bad by any means... but I liked em better the way they were.

I don't like it. It makes it look cheap.

Well, not cheap, but it looks like something you would do to an automatic 89 civic, not a nice lexus. Catch my drift?

Edit: I'm not knocking you, I just would have figured you would have put a nice higher end pair of rims on the car, like some CCW's, or Fikse's

It looks pimp. Personally i thought the wheels were too shiny before, and didn't really go that well with the car, but now they tie in much nicer. And I'm pretty sure that Volks are high end wheels.

Sorry, they just don't do it for me. They don't look like 2-3K rims to me.

well thats how much they are...personally I think see it in person and then see how "cheap" it looks...

[94NDTA]

I know how much they are.

I didn't mean to ruffle any feathers. The rims looked great, but I think the paint makes the look cheap. I can't change my opinion.

Do you want me to sit here and just nutswing, tell him they are the best looking rims I've ever seen? I tell it like it is!

Nope, but I guess I was saying check them out in person you might change your mind...It's good to tell it like it is...

Maybe I will. I'm not a big fan of 7 spoke rims, or rims painted the same color as the car, so it just doesn't sit right with me.

Exactly why i painted them, im not a fan of the shiny either. I didn't exactly know how they were gonna look painted, but i went ahead and just did it anyways and i like how they turned out.

I think it fits well with your car.

Everyone is entitled to their own opinion.

I like the look of the paint on that style of a wheel better. GT7s are still way nicer and look WAY better stock, but the paint looks better on these IMO
