So yesterday I picked up my new wheels from my buddy Sean. I got an insanely good deal on them and was already setup to meet up with him to pick them up so I couldn't cancel out just because my stuff got stolen. I could sell my old wheels for more than I paid for these anyway. >>

The wheels are 18x8" ALT AT159s, a 15-spoke chrome design. The rubber mounted on them are 225/40-18 Falken Ziex tires all around, with about 30% tread left I'd guess. One wheel has an area where the chrome chipped off from the car rolling off of a U-Haul trailer without the wheels straight, but other than that they're in almost perfect condition. >>

Anyway, here are the photos:







Let me know what you think...I'm thinking about sanding them down and painting them black, black with a chrome lip, or bronze. I'm not too sure if I want to keep them on the car though...they do make the car noticably slower due to their weight, but besides the chrome I like them a lot...I'm not sure on the offset, but the wheels do stick out the sides of the car farther, which I really like. >>

Sweet.

Polished black chrome.

im all for the black chrome look. Although yellow and bronze may clash a bit.

i likey, black with chrome lip woudl be sweet, but you better be damn confident so you dont screw up >>

personally, i don't like them. too many spokes for me. i would paint them black with the polished lip.

Not quite my taste but they look gangsta...lol As for a new look i think the black with the polished lip would be pretty slick.

I think your old rims look better, but thats just my opinion.

What's with your GT4 grill

Wow Christian, those look sick!! Man I love those wheels. Personally, i'd stick with the chrome. Your going to get SO much attention from people about those wheels. I think people need to see them in person, very attractive wheels.

Just my 2cents >>

yea lol you need to fix that gt-4 vent my friend but looks sweet otherwise

go black with chrome lip man >> my friends and i just painted his gsr rims black and left the lip silver..it looks super nice..i could get some pics if you wanted to see. and coomer, what happened to your front grille in the 3rd picture?

Yeah... I just dont like multispoke rims ::shrug:: its all personal style tho

old rims look way better IMO

I like ur older ones better >>

I like your old ones better too coom. From the looks of the pics, too much chrome for me. They might look good black tho.
