Do you see what I mean about the dish? It seems like these g8’s look better with rims that dont have em… The ones you like the most dont have a lip… So on another note do you not like the wheels in general or cause they are chrome? I have 2 sets of the same exact wheels and I was thinking about powder coating em black, Like I said Im afraid of how Orange and Black looks…

I see what you mean about the dish but IMO you need to find a G8 that has a quality deep dish on it like a Fiske or CCW wheel…all those dished wheels you posted are Donks IMO and dont belong on a G8. They belong on a slammed caddy or something.

the white gxp looks good but thats honestly the first set of dished wheels I like but to me I think the Breytons in the first gray car and Last one I showed look really Classy… But on that note, Cant afford Breytons, Im sure I cant afford CCW’s

Loved these wheels when I first got the car… Then I saw the ones I currently have and thought they look pretty similar (not exact)… BTW its like 6-7 grand for those HSV Pentagon wheels… I like how you can look at my wheels 2 ways and sorta see a different wheel with the pattern… You can look at the spokes as the closer gaps, Then sometimes your eye catches the farther gaps…

The second picture were my back up pick to my current wheels…

I agree with you that the wheels are expensive lol. I myself wont spend over 1k on wheels because I put that money in other area’s.
