I don't hate them, but they look like somebody tried to 1 up an old M5

A little too Volvo-ish for me.

Too many spokes! Z06 spiders are the best looking IMHO, even though I don't have them.

Looks similar to the O.Z. Wheels and Forgeline has a set close to that design. The bling kills it for me more than the style.

Although they would not be my first choice, I think that they make the car look 'lighter' or smaller, in a good sort of way.

I didn't think I would conclude that until I saw them on the car.

It depends upon the car. I like them, but color combo on the car is an important factor as to whether they will compliment the car or not.
