To me, that's to much "Bling",
I'm in the market for new wheels, and these wouldn't be it.

I have gold BBS wheels on an 82 BMW 733i, and they make that old car pop! But I haven't seen BBS wheels lately. I'm trying to drop my order on the wheels, but I already payed with PayPal, though it hasn't hit my bank yet. Any suggestions on how to cancel the order without causing wreckage to my eBay ratings? There is a return policy, but I'll have to eat it on the $160 shipping charges.

Quit worrying about what everyone else thinks and get what ever looks good to you. Why do you need someone else's approval?

True that, buddy5. But I do think others input is good when your not sure if you'll be satisfied with something long term. Obviously I saw something I liked about those wheels when I acted, but It was late at night after a few drinks with friends. And, though it may be shallow, nobody wants to get clowned on by other MBZ owners for rockin' cheap wheels on a pricey car. If I get stuck with 'em I'll probably mount them a see how it goes, can always sell later. But if I can get out, I kind of wanted some different black wheels anyway. Where do I find the classifieds on this forum anyway?

haha, I found that quite funny actually.

Uhh, about the ebay thing, you can PROVE that it doesn't work for your car if your car was specified to work with the wheels...

OR you can eat up the 160 charges

OR you can resell them - unlikely

Otherwise, good luck

And thats all that maters. If you like them, be unique...but don't flounder about it.

These rims actually remind me of the wheels I bought for my old '83 Supra GTS (except that mine were brushed finish and 16"). They're also pretty similar to the AR's I had on my '92 Eagle Talon TSi.

Chrome ="bling" to some...and others like it. I guess that part is subjective, so lean to your own tastes rather than worrying about the opinions of some wanna-be "tree dolla balla".
