Camera is just fine, I just need to learn to use it correctly. It's a cannon T2i.

You need to take a pic where it shows the nice concave of these wheels. From the back looking front and vice versa

The wheels are nice but too plain for the car.

I'm not hating. You asked people's opinions on a public forum. We all have different tastes. In the end as long as you like them, that's all that matters. Enjoy your new wheels.

Thanks R.K., just giving you a hard time. I do like them. I personally think it sets the car off right. I didn't want to go with a chrome wheel....I wanted something more sporty, and to give it a younger look. This car screams "old man Money." Which I am none of those things. Thanks again.
