I've seen far uglier wheels than those. Posted for sale. On this web site. Recently. The seller can ttt that post all he wants. Nobody wants 'em. The ones pictured here are gorgeous in comparison. 'Nuff said.

No one says we alll have to follow that same crowd. If your modding your car with the thought of making everyone else happy your going about it the wrong way. Just my .02

Again to each his own. That owner wanted to be a little different and do a monotone wheel package to match his car. Alot of people are doing that these days. Some people are starting to distance themselves from the average chrome look and seperate themselves from the pack. But again to each his own.
