Switching up wheels on my 4th gen. whaddyathinkk?



i picked up this set of Ray's G-Games tonight. 18x7.5 +35 offset. they look nice, but I'm not sure if i totally love them. I might just end up putting my Works back on. I dont know, they dont look aggressive enough i dont think. any opinions?

I don't know what your "old" rims look like from the side. But IMO, the ones in your sig look better.

They look ok...idk the ones in your sig look and sit better on the car. The gold doesn't look as good against the pearl as I would have thought. In for day pics.

Not really feeling the gold wheels. If the "Works" are what is in your sig, I'd stick with those.

Going to be hard to replace the Works, but I would rock the Rays on a darker color

this is my exact thoughts. i like the style, color, size. but i hate the offset, width and stance on the car with it.

They look ok, but 7.5" is pretty narrow if you're going aftermarket IMO. Go 8 or 8.5" at least with that offset.

Also, those tires seem like they're too small in that pic.

I vote for the Works also, though the g-games aren't terrible....

G-games are one of my all time favorite wheels. But i like your other ones better on your car. If the sizing was more aggressive on the rays, it would probably look 100x better.
