I know im going to get the " Drop it like its hot " comment (im going to when money permits) and I know my car dirty as hell if you must point out the obvious then go ahead, but I would like to know what everyone thinks.

they are of good design, but it almost makes your car look like a Hot Wheels Car.....makes your tires look flat..with no depth at all.

But if you like them, **** the rest of us!

I like the wheels! As far as the 18" size. It doesn't look right for some reason. Maybe it will look better when it's dropped. I'm thinking about getting those in the 20's. I have a photoshop of my car with them on there. Check it out!

I dont want 20's, i live in New England the roads suck here if this was show only then i would do 20's, but its my daily driver so 18's it is.
I think they look pretty good now but definetly better once i drop the car with the koni/eibach kit also when i put the tint up i think it will all come together and have good pop.

Any Late nighter opinions?
