Used Wheel taste
Kinda metallic

Seriously, I picked up this set of rims used. I kinda like it, but the family disagree's. Need some other opinions (price was right...) before I sink some $ into new rubber.

Thx.

I've seen worse. And if it gives a better stance than yo have now go with them. I think you need to bolt one on though to get the full effect.

I measure them as 9.5 inches?? Must be tired. Yes all hub covers, but rusty on the inside and cheap chrome. They seem straight, but need to take off the tires to be sure.

IMHO, I think it looks great! Gives a nice attitude and goes well with the blue color.
