Default New Wheels (Pictures Inside)

Here are my new 17x8 Hopsters with 235/45/17's all around.

I got the correct sizing and backspacing thanks to Dodgestang's chart.

I don't know how to post a pic here so here is a link

I will probably be the only one who doesn't like those wheels on a classic, but that's OK. To me, they are just too big and flashy. Too much chrome. Sorry bud. []

They're not chrome! They're polished aluminum! [8D]
