"Nice views"

Seriously, though, those wheels look good with that body color! Only problem with me is I like a "cleaner" look on my wheels and those silver bolts or drads or whatever at the ends of the spoks bother me. Not to mention a bitch to clean. But, over all, hot ! Now, to help balance the black wheels and tires, some TINT !

They are the stock tires 17". I don't know what a "nice view" is. They're not the rims I wanted at first. The ones I wanted were on web sites but never became available. I wanted the spoke to be different than all the rest out there, so many look alike. These are sort of like an iron cross. I would have the windows tinted but, it's illegal in Michigan. Not to hard to clean since it's not my daily driver. I bought it 10/04 and it just went over 3k miles. Never seen snow and rain only twice.

Awesome ! 3K ?!

And *NOT* awesome... no tint in Michigan, too !?

Yeah, I could tell the spokes were a little unique...the little bolt things are my only pet peeve.

Aren't those bolts called a bead lock (whether functional or not)?

Tint is illegal in Illinois too but that didn't stop me as you can see
