    I love that style of wheels, whats the problem?

    Well, posterity, you will never know what it cost us to preserve your freedom. I only hope that you will make a good use of it. If you do not, I shall repent in heaven that I ever took half the pains to preserve it.

            They would look a hell of a lot better if you were't able to fit another set of them into that wheel gap.

            When are people going to realize that aftermarket wheels combined with stock 4x4 ride height is one of the worst looking things you can do to a car?

            Your car would have looked a million times better lowered on bottlecaps than it does towering above the ground on aftermarket wheels.

            Forgive me for tearing you a new one about this, but it's my biggest car pet peeve.

              Everyone's entitled. If I could lower it without compromising ride comfort, and when I can afford it, I'll do it.

                      I never liked them much until I got a set of 15x7 Panasport ProRallys on my Milano. Old Japanese cars seem to wear them better though.

                      OP, they look good on your car! Now lower it!

                        I can't believe i am saying this, but just at least cut the springs in the front until you can fork out $240 for some H&R Sports

                          Holy shit. I have never bothered to make a post using the word 4x4, but wow, that cherry was just popped.

                          Wheels could be cool in the right application though.

                          +1 on the cut springs, if done properly, it is not as bad as some here would lead you to believe.

                              I dig them David, but I agree with the other guys, you need to lower that thing ASAP.

                              What size/width are those RBs?
