looks great . only thing that really kills the car is the chrome pieces on the car it self not the wheel. i wonder if they have after markets parts to replace the chrome pieces. but besides that looks nice.

I was thinking about this also... but I like the chrome hub section of these wheels, and I think that element pulls it all together?

BTWI don't use photoshop much at all, so thanks for compliment...

Not a fan of the silver center or the red outline.

Personally I like the BBS style mesh like this guy's... http://images.google.com/imgres?imgu...3Doff%26sa%3DN

i'm starting to think that a polished lip would look better.

2nd wheel for sure, but like somebody else mentioned, you may want to go with a silver lip, unless you can paint the lip to match the red on your car, it will not look uniform . The red on the lip of the wheel is very diffrent from the red on your car.
