i think they would look ghey… but thats just my opinion… its all about your taste man, its your car… and just make sure they arnt that heavier then stock… or you may be paying more to move your car then you used to.

Looks good to me… if its anything to do with appearance your always going to have this type of indifference no matter what. Most people “would” agree that these rims are better looking than alot of stuff out there, then there are people that will hate no matter what.

Wheels DON’T make the car, but in the appearance department they sure do help. Take Zep’s old black s14 for example, stock s14 with baller gravity wheels, now compare that visual with stock s14 body with other rims not many rims up to the task visually.

It gets baller status from me tho on a decent car. The 19s on the red hatch looks awesome, with aero it would look amazing.

Multisclg — Nice rims, but they look like they should be backed up by some muscle. The only way I would consider putting those on my 240 is if I was packing a LSx under the hood, that would be a statement and a 1/2.

If the rims do make the car why does the car have a front lip, jdm half clears, and lower in the second pic?

You just owned yourself. And we can’t even see what kind of rims he has, it’s just flush. The wheels weren’t the only thing he added.

Okay, so a lip was added, so that defeats what you were saying.

rims make a car WAY better looking but in terms of these… that sizing that ryan gave is not balling… gota go get u some spacers.but design is aight since the lip is decent.

rims can also make ur car even uglier then stock rims cuz u spent money to get ur car more sunken then it already is.

the red car is HOOOOOOT…like FIAH~!! he dont need aero its his drift slut tucking 19s haha

you cant drift an sohc with 19’s.

you dont need aero to make it look good, although in most cases you do especially with 19"s, however YOU NEED TO BE LOW FIRST and have disgusting fitment otherwise.
