These have come up at a good price but i'm a bit hesitant of the styling.
Can anybody here shine some light on my decision? Confused

(18x8.5 & 18x9.5)

Agree with Chickita ...

With so many wheels out there, they don't do anything for me at all.

They remind me of the Alfa clover leaf wheels from 30-40 years ago.

How expensive are they?

Cheers,

Peter

Those rims have been on trademe for ages dude. Not really a fan aswell, you 'could' get away by painting the spokes black and leaving the dish silver.

Yea I agree with that. Sad

I'm going to wait until something wider and not so ugly turns up. Cool

these are wheels which people put on their 300zx to make them look more like lambos. used to be on many imported z32's.
