Woodro, if you have an auto and do a lot of city/urban driving, 4.10s are recommended. If you have a manual and do a lot of highway driving, 3.73s are recommended. Wheels look good, Woodro.

Another thumbs up for the wheels and 3.73 gears for a manual.

Looks good to me! A little big for my tastes, but still love the style! The only all black rims I really like are the saleen's.

Yeah, well, I'm not one to mince words but that's how I roll (which I've also found to be somewhat of a career-limiting bad habit...). But after seeing the pic (thanks, kgrun), I really like the way the chrome lip contrasts the black and gives the eye something to distinguish where the wheel/tire edges are.
