Just picked up some new rims, LMK what you think of them. Kinda old school, but i like them. Defenitely 100% improvement over the stockies.

Before pics:




And...After





AMG monoblocks, 18X9 front and rear w/ 235/40/18 BFG's.

There is no spacers on there yet, Im thinking of spacing out the rear a little bit to make it closer to the fender for a more agressive look.
Next is going to be a drop.

ohhhh bra...looks good. Shmall kine styling. I also like the Monoblocks II. Looks good as long as those are kept clean, IMO they never look "old school". For whatever reasons they just look "right"

I'd lower that baby a little bit and put on a nice simple but elegant kit (I personally like the Wald kit)

Check out this car on Ebay, dude did a pretty good job. I like everything about it except maybe the rims...Looks good, but it's too close to stock.
