might i ask why?
i honestly wasn't sure of the color choice myself but in person it does look much better. i really just wanted to do something i really haven't seen before. it seems like ever wheel i see on here is silver chrome black or bronze or the 3g tl s wheels

Wheels def look good i dont think they look bad but i think it does look better with the stockies on there. Flows much better with the car imo. Love the ssm! Your rides dope though reminds me a lot of mine minus the rear fog and rear oem lip.

Whats the sizing on the wheels? They remind me of the Konig Laces.

I have always been a big fan of the 2gn TL. I have to agree that it does look better with the stock wheels on. Still it looks sweet anyway!

I have to agree with what's been said already. I love the overall look of the car but the wheels don't flow. The black lips make the wheels look small and unappealing. I think if you were rocking gunmetal or all black wheels it would have looked better.

All that matters is that you like what you see when you look at your ride. So while you can take our comments into account, what you do with your baby is entirely up to you. With that said, I'd put the stock wheels back on, sell the aftermarket ones and look for a better set.

I'm sure he has it wired to a switch in the cabin and connected to the battery. Pretty sure that's the simplest and most effective way of doing it.

Not a fan of the wheels, or black lips in general. (unless the whole wheel is black)

I like the car tho. I need to do my headlights asap
