Ya know...usually it is me that is the one that steps up and actually states my opinion whenever someone throws out the "what do ya think" post... I'm glad someone else did it for a change. But just for the record, I couldn't agree more.
I've seen many a set of rims in my day that made me wonder "with all the rims on the market, how in the world does someone pick those?" But in this case, I'm thinking more along the lines of "how does a rim like this even get to the production stage?" :scratch: Surely this is a one off set of rims...I'm not trying to be rude, everybody has thier own taste...my guess is that this is not the first time this guy has been criticized for his!

Looks good, just an FYI though. You have plenty of room for larger tires even after it's lowered. You could go with a 295 in the rear the next time around. It won't be to long before you need to rears anyway.

I got my new tires/wheels last Thursday! They are Replica GT-R rims (chrome) and BF Goodwrench G-Force T/A KDW NT tires (size 255/45-18 front and rear). I love them!

I'm sorry but I just couldn't let these go without saying something. Please tell me these are a joke...right? Some company actually makes these rims, seriously? And charges money for them??

And people BUY them?? I'm just....I'm really at a loss here. Car and picture seem to be in Europe somewhere...hopefully they don't make it over here at any point.

isn't anyone else's internal Mustang-alert sirens going off or is it just me?

i was thinking the same thing. those wouldnt even look good on an escalade. i do not like monster bling rims on these cars. it is an old school car and therefore should have oldschool rims on it. why not throw some spinners and 26s and jack it up and make it a donk like they do down in florida and other parts of the south?!?!?!?!?!? i also am not a big fan of body kits on these cars, i think it looks best with a classic chin spoiler and ducktail. im not even gonna lower my car, i think the way it sits it looks right with the theme i am going with. and i also live in manhattan, so i couldnt lower it or i would have to rice around every pothole like the honda herbs. i dont really like the look of anything above 18s on the s197. MAYBE 19s if they are mr right. I HATE BLING
