I'm Thinkin Bout These...*PICS*

One of my wheels was damaged when i wrecked the car...so when i was searching for a new wheel, i found these and I liked how they look. What do you guys think?



Right now I have these on my car...


For those that don't know, my car is an 06 SS/SC Ultra Silver and used to look like this...

Mmm, not feeling the new choice. I say just replace the old wheel. I had to replace a 19" back when I drove into that damn crater, lol. Don't let one bent wheel ruin your faith in the set you already have.

Hey, why not try to get some 19" Axis Mods in silver? I know you said you always wanted 19"s, and the silver Mods would look hot on a silver SS/SC. Just an idea.

Replace the one you have...I have those rims in Black with an Orange Lip. Look awesome on car, always getting compliments. Those look sweet on your car.

The ones you're looking at, blech, fake rivots and all...
