    tell me that this looks ghetto. i only get good coments bout it. makes it stand out from the rest. the overall size of the tire is larger than normal so it fills up the wheel arch instead of there bein a gaping hole in the side.

    yeah it does. turns heads. everyone has 18s and 19s. but bear in mind the probs i mentioned earlier and the tires aren't cheap so if you like to show off n do some burnouts the smaller sizes may be better. my days of doin burnouts are gone cause of these wheels. shame cause they are fun.

    That's nice, I'm glad you like them. They look average at best as far as I'm concerned. And on a Lumina (and a white one!) I think they would indeed look ghetto. Hell maybe I should chuck some 20" chromies on the Starlet. How gangsta would that look?!

    looks good, not my cup of tea but alot better than alot of poxy after market rims. Glad you didnt go 20s either they look ridiculous on some cars. I guess if your car is gutless you need something for people to look at...
