I don't know why, but i'm not feeling them. I thought they'd be hot when I clicked the description. The spokes are almost too thin for that car....the white lip is interesting though!

I think the thin spokes makes them look smallish for 20's. But they look good but not as good as I think they would in a larger spoke design.

I think the white lip fits the car well.

yea, that's basically what I was saying....the spokes just need to be larger on a wheel that big w/ a car of those proportions.


do dig the white lip

Looks good!

For some reason, the black side skirts and rear of the car take away from it IMO...

The car looks good overall... but the brakes look pathetic! The wheels make it even worse, I would get some brembo big brakes on that car ASAP!

I saw the car at my buddy's performance shop, it looks better in person. The white lip gives great contrast.

The wheels fit a euro car, I'd get the aftermarket shelby wheels.
