Default Which Rims??

So I put my husbands rims on my car so I can have some good tires until we get the time to go swap them onto my rims. I don't really know if I like it all that much and I wanted to get a few opinions on them. Gold or stock?? New rims aren't on option for us at the time, but I know that will probably be some comments.

For some reason, I like the bronze, but those particular wheels need to be larger in diameter.

But, fuck the wheels and just fix that exhaust cut-out for now.

Of the two, I'd go with the stock ones because those gold ones look like they came off a power wheels.

Aside from that, I'd pick something different in style from either.

What's the stock diameter? The stockers look larger for some reason.

Maybe it's the 8 feet of gap between the tire and the wheel well that makes them look so minuscule.

Haha, I think she's already lowered it. But I'm in the same boat. My car has been lowered and there is still an inch or so of wheel gap.

Yea I don't know why it did that. My stock wheels are 225 and those are 235. They are both 18s but one has a lip and the other doesn't. I thought when I put the thicker tires on there it would close in the gap a little, but it didn't for some reason.

Sounds like wheels aren't what you need.

It's coilovers you should be thinking about.
