Stern wheels have bee naround forever...ieatrice had the sickest ones before he swapped for his 19s. Anyway, i found these, tell me your thoughts on how they would look on my black 98, either chrome like they are, or the centers powdercoated black...here goes,

The sizes are 18x8.5 +20 and 18x9.5 +20 . . . not too weak

Thanks, Ryan

IMO, nasty. Chrome on a 240 is pretty gaudy for one, and the spoke design looks too American Racing for me. But the sizes are good. Again, that's just my opinion, it's your car so your decision should be based on what you like, not us.

might look good on a BMW, Benz, or GS400 something like that...a big car. Chrome sux, though.

wow, i really like the last set u posted. especially in chrome, dont listen to everyone elses opinion unless ur trying to impress them. I'd buy the rims i like. although i dunno about actual chrome. i'm sure those are just super polished, maybe nickel plated or something.
i'm getting my z32 rims polished. theyll be hott!

I honestly like both.. the second ones are hotter though. what color you go with spoke wise should depend on what color car they are going on.

chrome is classy, black on on black is the shit too... At this point im waiting to find out if the seconds are available in the sizes i want. The chrome ones are, and i have a pic of it on their show 350z - looks nice.

I'm running that same offset on mine. +20 in the rear @ 18X10 235/40 Falken. So lovely. . . . If you enjoy the VIP style, go for the chrome, if so to a less extent, go for the black gloss center. . . . One Love.

quality is quality. there is nothing wrong with polished rims on a 240. we get enough negative attention as it is but if you don't mind the fact that a criminal WILL notice those suckers... rockem. just don't piss and moan when your bling gets jacked.

OR store your car in a garage under lock, key, and threat of gunshot wounds.
