Pics of new wheels i got after i crashed... 56k beware

Hey guys, as some of you know, I crashed my car about a week ago, but in the mean time while it sits at least it's sitting on some new (to me) rims, tell me what you think!







the tires had been sat on for a year, so I will upgrade them to low profile performance summer time wheels once i fix the suspension/have it takein to a shop for some engine work

but the point is, i got the rims/tires for $100 total not bad right?!

I have two choices...

choice number one: keep the 16"s that are on there now

choice number two: go back to the 14" phone dials...

...i'd go with the "mid 90's" look any day.

Compared to the phone dials those wheels are into the new millenium.
