Sorry to say, they just don't fit the 8 style and they are kind of a gimmick.

I think they look......like they came from Big Lots or Walmat. Just my opinion but they don't go with a car as refined as an 8 well but perhaps more suited to a '89 Civic. Nothing personal...sorry.

I personally don't mind the look of the wheels. It's just that everyone and their mom has them. They're just too common for me to get excited over them.

^^^^+1 I like the look, but think it would look much better if the rivets were painted black......that should get rid of the hint of cheesey look.

You couldn't pay me to put those on my car... ok maybe if we hit 5 digits... a month... after taxes.

But I'd end up just buying another car and keeping that one as an extra source of income.
