first time buyer's questions!

[enobmort42]

hey, i've never owned a car where i've cared enough to spend any money on it, other than the occasional oil change and gas every other day lol. however, i bought some rims and wanted some peoples' input on my impulse buy.

i don't know much about them, so all i have are the specs that i've gotten from the outside of 'em. i got them used, too. i had them on Thumper for a while before the treads became dangerously low, and i had to take them off. they're 205/45R/17's.

i didn't think about this before i bought them, but turns out i lose some of my turning radius (biggest disappointment!), gas mileage, and speedometer accuracy. shame.

they're "volution" rims, i guess? i've never heard of that brand, but i foolishly bought them for aesthetics, not the name or the treads, obviously!

so all this being said, whatdya'll think?

They look good. Any pics from further away?

They're going well with the white and black theme you have going.

i wish i had taken some better photos before taking them off... i was in NY for the summer and didn't think to bring most of my things up with me, such as my camera. had i brought that, i would have taken many MANY more photos...

i guess the feeling of passing another car on the highway, looking at my own reflection in their door panels, and thinking, "damn. that looks tyte," is worth it!
