    Ricey wheels

    I bought a set of wheels on ebay that I thought looked pretty good, for a great price of $200 shipped w/ tires (normally $600 shipped for new w/o tires). This weekend I've seen two cars w/ those same or similar wheels, a talon and a sentra. I still think those wheels don't look bad (definitely better than bottlecaps), but my enthusiasm has dwindled for them by seeing them on those tastless cars. Guess this is my punishment for getting any 4 lug et40 wheel...

    Anybody else have their perception of wheels altered by association w/ a shitty car?

                I dont think they look bad but the fake 3-piece look kills them.

                        Those are 17s, I got 15s :( Guess I'll keep them, they don't look as bad on an e30.

                        Anyhow I don't have them yet, should be here on Wednesday.

                          I like the wheels. If you don't want them let me know. I can drive down from Dallas and pick them up. I'll pay $50 more than you did.
                          Cheers,
                          Gregg
