thoughts? BLING BLING!
Ebay rims....
The chrome will probably start peeling or flaking off. I wouldn't trust it.
There are many options out there by legit brands. Are you dead set on chrome?
ps. They do have a nice lip on them though.

^^^ they are polished not chrome, I would say buy what you like. i think they would look good on a red lb. I also like the deep lip... gives the wheel a VIP look :)

199 + 165 shipping = $364.00
I mean, you get what you pay for, look at the lug hole layout. I'm going to say thumbs down, just not good enough for my minimum quality threshold.
You can get other wheels in that price range.

Hi
I like the lip, but as other states the quality could be bad.
The lug hole layout: The holes are thru the edges on the spokes instead of in the center of the spokes, that doesn´t look very good.
Regards Steven.

Well... that's what sometimes happens when you dual drill a 4-bolt pattern on a 5-spoke wheel. Yikes!
