i decided to stay with 17s because ive had bad experiences with bigger wheels .. rather have more rubber and flush than more rim and risk it..

Eh... I liked the first pic. Ether the wheels are way to small or the tires are to small. they look like they should be on a drift car like a 240sx. But hey if you like it then rock it.

Not feeling those rims at all. I feel they completely take away from the overall clean look of the TL. But hey to each his own.

I get what you're doing with the rim and tire size I guess, but why blue?

I purchased them really for the size because it was the offset I wanted.. The dude who had em before me had them this color.. But i've seen orange, red.. Wanted to do something different.. Planning to powdercoat them though a different color soon..

Props for doing something different but I'm not feeling it. I love RPF1s but I think the color and size is throwing me off. Maybe I'll like it more once you lower it more.

^, I like originality. Enjoy the blue wheels-they're a great summer color.

I vote for the gunmetal too, if you're going to repaint them. But I say wait for fall.
