Default What do you think of my rims?

I think it will be interesting to get everyone's opinions on these. Obviously they're not the best option but for $200 with tires they were perfect for a poor 16 year old kid. They're off of a '96 GT with a little bit of curb rash. I don't have the center caps in in these pictures so it doesn't look it's best but like the title says, what do you think?

Clearance is actually fine. The PO put gas shocks all around so I think that probably has a lot to do with it although it appears that the rear is sagging a little bit.

Yeah it's in and running. I think on the pic with only the front wheel the jack might still be under it. Don't know why the last one makes it look so high up...it looks normal in person.

Hmm, I personally think they don't "fit" the body too well, but thats just my opinion. Still, they are round and roll, but that 200 coulda went to something else and still keep the others till later....

they look pretty slick, you can't complain for $200 bucks. Tires look like they have decent tread on them as well.

I think they look good. Especially when you show the before and after shots. No offence to anyone that likes the wire mesh wheels, but they give me flashbacks of the stationwagon I learned to drive on....Oh the horror......the horror......

What color are you going for when you go to paint?

They look good

Did you measure the back space? I want to know if they'll fit my car.

Thanks
