My opinion........take off whatever is on the side gills, and go back to the stock front grill and the car will be perfect

I have the stock chrome that, look like they are for a front wheel drive car ( off-set ).

I agree with this. The car looks great with those wheels, no need to draw attention away and to the front grill and side gills.

He did ask for opinions...

Love the color, and the wheels. Not fond of the chrome gills. I have seen some that were very slim which looked better. Regardless, it is a beautiful car.

Beautiful car, awesome wheels. I'm in agreement with those who said the chrome grills are not adding to the overall look. The fitment of the front grill look off. Those wheels are great and the color looks incredible. In the end, it's your car and as long as you like it, enjoy!
