Is it the lighting or the paint that is giving it the rainbow colored reflection? If it is the paint, then I hate it. However, if the black paint is just that glossy, then I am impressed. Other than the rainbows, I do like the style.

Rainbow colors on your wheels......???? I think they may look cool in the store, but once mounted and on your car, I think it might look a little feminine with the pretty colors.....

Unless that is the look you're going for.

Way too much bling for my tastes, but then I'd drive a box if it had the performance and dynamics that I wanted.

That's not that bad.


Any it would probably look kinda cool on a black 8 with a semi-reflective window tint and smoked corners/tails. Then get the same effect on your exhaust tips...

did u look at the rims i was kind enough 2 give u the name and brand of and where to look at them??? this was on the pics/photos thread. i have personally had deep dish 20''275/30/20 5 spoke rims on my 8 and my opinion is it does'nt suit the 8's shapeand curves. just my opinion, use it, dont use it, abuse it
