My New Rims, tell me what yall think!



18" ALT X Phile (CHROME)
Wrapped in 225/40/R18 Hankook Tires

Well, finally moved up to bigger rims with a cleaner look. Chrome is my Theme and I stay true to that. Pics arent that great because of Digi cam actin up when its dark in the basement. Tell me what you think!

Thanks buddy. They actually are CHROME just that its dark down where and i tried my best to get the best picture. The chrome is reflecting off of the dark objects around it.

Thanks for the compliments, and yes Im very mad winter is here now, so they will sit till spring. BUTT......I have time to get my Brembo Cross Drilled and Slotted rotars for the front and back, and painting the calipers

later bud

you mean full face rims like mine right, yeah, I agree! Makes them look just a tad bit bigger, cause of no lip.

HAHA, No, actually not at all like yours. buahahah

I mean a lip that's actually sticking out some...say a half inch or so. Your new rims DO NOT HAVE A LIP.

NO LIP = OK

LIP = AWESOME, VERY SPORTY-LOOKING

Those are definitely sweet, 6 or even 7 spoke are the way to go. The only thing is aren't 225's too narrow? My speedo is pretty much exact with a 235/40-WR18

Sorry for the late reply, I forgot all about this thread. Yes my hood struts are dead (they work a little but wont stay up) and rather than paying to buy new ones I made my own out of billet aluminum rod and a turnbuckle. alot cheaper than struts and 100% reliable.
