uh oh the cav has new wheels

well I just got these from my friend. I need to do some work to them and get them painted but they actually look really good on the car. They're 17" Euromax design wheels.

I usually don't car for close-spoked wheels, but the white lip on those is just enough to mark the contrast of the black spokes and your paint. The visual balance is great. I like 'em. A lot.

Ugliest things I've ever seen but thats just my own opinion. They remind me of those things pizza places set on a pizza to cut all the slices out at once.

The wheels before were stripped bare when they were on the car before. I plan on taking them and painting the lip silver and in between the spokes. Thanks for all the compliments.

because of the lip on the rims. any rims that have a lip on them like that where the spokes dont go all the way out, they always look a size smaller

Also the dark color. If the very lip itself whas polished or silver, it would look bigger. The dark lip almost blends with the tire.

I have the same problem on my winter vehicle. I got 18's in gunmetal, and they don't look that big. I'm thinking that over the summer I'll be painting them bright silver. I thought they looked pretty cool, but on the vehicle they kind of dissapear.

I have to say, though. The rims look better on the car than I thought they would. Sounds like a good score for you.

Yeah we'll see if I paint the lip or not.
