Thumbs up Wheel Opinion Needed!

Alright, the time has come where I'm wanting some new wheels pretty bad.

I'm not a big fan of gaudy bling bling wheels, I've always been a revised factory look kind of guy.

I've narrowed it down to 2 options

1) Chrome Look A-Specs - I know they're boring and played out but I love the factory sporty look of them.

2) Liquid Silver RonJon Legends 19" - They just look hot. They have sort of factory look to them nothing too flashy or overstated.

Luxury or Sporty?

Maybe someone with some great talent could photoshop these 2 wheels for me? I would greatly appreciate that!




Not the best of angles but that's all I have right now

It's hard to capture the beauty of Chrome Look on camera, as they look tons better in person, but here are photoshops anyways:

and if you go directly to that dealer's web page, which you'll find linked in the RDX wheel thread, you'll save 10 bucks over their ebay ad

Yeah, I got the Chrome Look RDX as well too... They were a friggen steal... I tried to get the local dealer to price match, cuz when I asked, they were like, "Sure, we price match"... Then when I told him the price, he was like, "I'm sorry, the best price we can offer is $1899"

I was like

I was sceptical about getting the chrome myself...cuz it tends to look different depending on the lighting based on the various pictures i've found online. It looks black almost on some...then it looks shiny chrome on others. But after seeing the ps im definitely happy i got em. Especially for that crazy ass price...cant go wrong...and still keeps the car looking classy cuz its oem wheels. Cant wait to see how it will look on my SSM with 20percent tint. Should get them some time next week...just need to find me some decently priced tires.
