Me no likey. I mean, it’s better than stock wheels but I just don’t like the zig-zag or the spoiler to begin with. But hey if you like it that’s all that matters so :tup:

ditch the zig zag thing at the back, and just carry the wide black strip along the line its on to the tail lights, it would look much better. plus wash that crap and tint the windows like 50%, then ditch that saturn badge on the side

Amazing what “there will be boosted” does to the look of a car. It actually changed the appearance of your wheels.

wash it, lower it, get rid of the decals…then the rims might look nice…

but with such a light car, IMO you should focus on performance. 200hp on a 2200 pound car would beat a 300hp car that weighs 3300+ pounds. Just something to think about. 😉 (in a straight line, of course)

well i am focusing on performance but i like a a car that looks as good as it is fast hence the turbo which. on stock internals i should be around 200whp with 8psi but when the forged engine gets in there i want close to 400whp. but i know i will not lose the graphics maybe the zig zag part but not all of it cause i just dont like how the car looks without it but i do appreciate your comments
