Default Tires and Rims

Apparently there has been some trash talk around town about my rims and tires. I personally think they look fine, but figured I'd get some other opinions. I tend to lean towards black rims. Any input is appreciated.

I think they look fine, not too crazy but not too generic either. Plus I am a fan of darker rims on white cars.

But that cowl hood is one of the most aggressive I've ever seen! That car looks like it's going to punch me in the face and eat my ice cream.

Kinda hard to tell, the pic is alittle to dark. They look chrome, and not being a chrome fan I would have to say no my cup of tea but they arent horrible either. Not sure what the trash talk is about. Have you seen what most old Cadies run around on?

Not to mention, who cares what someone else says about your rims? Most likely some tuner dipshiz who things HKS stickers add HP to his ride :P

If you find out who it is just tell them you'll give a different view of your car when you see them next time, its taillights

I say roll with the rims you like! Who cares what anyone else thinks if you're enjoying them. There's always going to be people who dislike your car, and others who love it. Just stick around the right crowd!

They maybe bashing you because they are not the typical style wheels you see on Mustangs. If you are happy with them, that's all that matters.

From your tiny picture it's hard to tell but it looks good to me, I like chrome or lighter wheels on a lighter colored car, and screw what others think of it, It's yours not theirs, if they don't like it they should FO.

He was not bashing, but just expressing his opinion! My opinion is I prefer chrome wheels. This is what forums are all about, expressing opinions. People post to get opinions/feedback, negative or positive.

Moving on, I have 2 week old Firestone FR710's, 225/60R16 on my stock machined rims rims. $519.00 out the door from local front end and alignment shop. 2 months ago, I got all new replacement Blizzak's on aluminum gray painted rims. Both look fancy from my description?

I think it looks good! Wouldn't pay much attention to any opinions anyway, if you like it!
