Should I put these rims on my 8?
I was wondering if you guys think this would look good on a Blue 8?
G-G Rims

And if you guys know of some good looking low-profile tires that would fit this rim would you please list it.

Ok looking but would not waste the bucks when the stock rims look good. Such a price to be a little different.

Ummmm.... To Much BLING for my liking. If they were a Gun Metal color I would put them on my 8. I have a Velocity Red one. I think they would look good if they had less Bling But whatever floats your boat.

I agree they are a little too bling for my taste. What color is your car? That would help with a yea or nay from me. They are nice looking wheels, but again, not my style...

Especially the fact that they are 7.5" X 19." I would rather go up in width, not down.

No! Too "blingy" for this car. You need a more sporty look. Email this guy:
sales@technotrading.net

He has great deals! I got my Axis 19's for 900 shipped! Good luck

They're not bad looking

Bottom line is:

do whatever you want, it's your car

Those thin rims would make it look kinda strange. If you into the crome and like those, try to find at least an 8"
