Rimssss

K first off id like to say i was looking at these pics from SS6, and this is by far the most beautiful 7 i have ever seen. close to one of the best cars ive ever seen. just my opinion though. now i wanna know wat everyone thinks of those rims an how theyd look on a blue 8! not exactly in my budget of $0, but its nice to dream. 18-19's Maya DTM's. incredible. :D

Edit*** Dunno if this should go in the Wheels section or not... if so sorry for any inconvenience.

Chrome rims on a 7.. hmm.. and in that fashion... the first thing that I would assume is the owner wanted something rather cheesy looking, which it is. It just doesn't mesh well with the rest of the car. Secondly, the pattern on those rims... isn't all that great..

chrome wheels are reserved for cars like that. in my book, maya's are right up there with HRE's and Iforged..

although they could be a tad wider in the rear

I would have to say that I am one of the most conservative anti-rice type people, and man o man. I just soiled myself looking at that picture. its beautiful. yes, it could have a little less bling, but it makes its assertion without being too over the top.

Ding ding ding! Alright, you are politically correct, you didn't use the "rice" word! Congratulations, I commend you!

No offense to you by this statement, btw. I'm opn an anti-rice word useage campaign and I had suggested the use of the word "gaudy" on another thread and am surpised to find you had used it in your post before I even started the campaign.

Gaudy is in the eye of the beholder, just as beauty is. You, and everyone else, are entitled to an opinion. I would fight for that right.

My opinion is I think this is a beautiful car and I would be a proud owner of such. The color, the rims the big *** wing, this is one nice looking 7.
