No one on here ever likes my wheels, lol. As much as i do have to go with the best wheels that are available second hand in my price range, I try to style the car to blend with the wheels as best as possible. With this car i like the overly modern wheels, they were polished faces when i got them but thought with them being 19's the would be too much i painted the chrome and the roof shiny to match the wheels and the car has a very modern look to it and still manages to look evil. The problem for me with most of the wheels people suggest i should have, and with this retro scene, is that i feel like i have seen so many of these cars 100 times before, they may be lower but all too familiar. Its probably because i am old and remember them new. I just try to make something unique and fresh for very little cash. If everyone liked what i did then i would be doing something wrong.
Respect due.
I fully understand and share similar feelings about my own vehicles. It's not customized if you follow the crowd, it's "after-market standard". Keep up the good work.

I think the black of the wheels takes away from the design itself. Maybe try a polished/silver wheel? I've always loves SECs. Great start you've got here.
