What do you think?

How do you think these rims would look on a white FB? I think they'd look really sick, but I want some other opinions.

I think okay. The color will look nice, but they look like they belong on an ATV or offroad vehicle if you ask me. But hey, its your car



It looks alright on my car so who knows haha

the largest size they come in is 15x7.5 . I was thinking those with Some Toyo Proxes R888s would be pretty ill.

I like those. Ideally, I want black BBS or Einkei Mesh wheels, but those seem to be a little harder to find.

Yeah, I do like the rewinds, but I found a killer deal on some Diamond Racing 15x7 black steelies, so I'm gonna go that route. I think that'll give it more of a purpose built "I'm gonna outrun you and bang your wife" look.
