Did you really think posting this would end up with a thread-full of praise? You have green wheels on a white car man. Don't make threads like this if you're not ready to take the critisicm.
you just contradicted yourself sir, you said no one is hating followed by "looks like crap"...... in my book thats hating. but w/e im not about to start arguing with anyone.

The problem is that our language is in tatters and words have lost their meaning for much of what goes on online. If one happens to like something, they are a "fanboy"; express some disagreement, and the hyperbolic "hater" is applied. Nuance is lost, and the subtleties of like and dislike seem long gone in an environment where extreme is the new norm. The ability or desire to discuss shades of gray has been replaced by dichotomous outposts of black and white. Of course, even understanding some of the words is a new challenge. Where have the writing and speech teachers been for the last twenty years?

In that spirit, and beyond my earlier play on words, my answer is:

I don't care for them, but they are distinctive. If the OP likes them, so be it.

saying "looks like crap" is FAR from hating on someone...that's an opinion, I have not hated on OP's car. It's just so annoying how people post pictures, ask for opinions, and then follow off with "you're all haters" the second anybody disagrees with them. Haters are for people who can't take criticism.

But I agree, not trying to start an argument.

if comments like: "WTF is that ****" "what the hell were you thing" "you just ruined it" "looks like crap" isnt hate, then what is? if someone was to respond to the OP's pic with a comment like "not for me" "not my taste" then thats not "hating" but with comments like the above that's definitely "hating". And from what the OP said he isn't taking any of the insults to heart, so OBV he can handle an insult, but dont try and say there's no hate when its blatantly right there. and yes you can say its an opinion but come on... if your gonna dish it out, don't get offended when your called out on being a hater.

At least you can take the heat! with wheels like that you'll need to be able to when you're out in public

but really though, that front offset looks really shallow.. i guess we'll have to see a better angle

I like them. Way to be unique and do your own thing. I don't think the accents are needed though. The rims are enough.

Exactly just opinions, at the end is your ride and do what you like, as long you are satisfied with the result, it’s what it counts.
