5th gen wheels

I see a lot of you are putting the 5th gen 17's on your 4th gen cars and I kinda like the look. I was just wondering how you guys like them and how much did you pay for them.

$500. I think they look much better than the OEM 16s I had on before. Handles a little better too.

Are those wheels photoshopped on there or is that an actual pic? They look awesome! If those are 17's, they look really big. I might just end up going with a set of those... the only thing that has been holding me back is that everyone says you'll be unhappy if you go with 17's because they'll look small still. For the price and look of those, you can't go wrong.

EDIT: nevermind, I looked at it for a minute more, and it's obvious they're not photoshopped. They just look cool to me. I am seriously thinking about getting a set of those. They just look bigger than 17 to me. Nice.

no, I'm sorry, but it's definitely photoshopped. here's the original pic...



they're only 17s and I'm still rocking the 4x4

Well, obviously your door handles and bumper and stuff are... but I was hoping the wheels weren't. Well, I still think they look good though. (but your photoshopping job does make them look bigger than they really are)
