This and that.
Such a strange picture....looks like a toy car.

Not sure about the wheels. Deff unique, I don't necessarily hate them but don't love them either. Kind of takes away from the classiness of the car I feel, but if you like them that's the important thing.

I wouldn't choose it for my own car (if it were white) but no one here has tried white wheels on a white car. I've seen white 911s with white wheel centers and that works very well.

What I do dislike are black wheels.

I like it, a lot of ppl on this forum dont follow the show scene and get the whole colored wheel concept. always good to see something new and not just black plastidipped wheels.

Thank you for the positive comment. Your right a lot of people on these forums don't like different so it doesn't bother me but I'm glad the few that do think outside of the box do approve my car I think I bought my lug bolts from you btw
