Default Got New RIms

What’s up guys,
I just recently got new rims, so tell me what u guy's think, I’m still debating weather or not I should keep them. But I think that they will start to grow on me, I know its a little bit bling bling but I tried to keep it simple.

Doesn't look bad to me at all. Shows off the brakes pretty good. Drop the sucker and you'll be in business.

Looks nice and clean! It looks like it's sticking out a bit under the fender, do you think it'll rub once you drop it?

Too bling bling for my tastes. Are they true 3 piece rims? I'd say sell them and pick up a staggered setup. Im not a fan of white on chrome. I think chrome looks better on darker colored cars. Just my $0.02.

Definately lower your car though. your car is already clean and it will look a lot better no matter which rims you decide on..
