I hate to ask since I bought these on the cheap to replace some out-of-round rims. I bought these for about $70 each along with a set of four Kuhmo Solus HP tires. I kind of like the wheels considering the price!

Tell me what you think.

They look fake because they seem to 'stick out' a little bit more far than a rim that's flush to where the sidewall of the tire is. The illusion of sticking out makes it look hubcap-like. I can tell the difference though.

They're sort of cool. Definitely for the price, and with tires.

Yeah, the "hubcap-like" look was my thought. The car rides so much better now that I am not too disappointed that I could not spend the bucks to get the gun metal rims that I really wanted.

I like them for the price, but they are not my flavor. On a side note, dude your paint is absolutely beautiful.

Thank you, LM. It just had a coat of Griott's Best of Show wax, but I have waxed it four times a year since it was new. It holds its own against much newer cars.

I got them at Discount Tire. They were on special. They are MB Wheels, Discount's house brand. Here is a pic from my camera phone of the whole car. They look a little better this way...
