Not on a coupe man. They might look alright on a sedan but those are not coupe wheels. IMO.

You shouldn't have to ask....!

I would have thought being from SoCal you would have better taste in
wheels for your coupe, I guess that's a NFW! Those big chrome wheels
are heavy and would surely hurt your performance, not to mention they're
a down grade compared to what came on your G.... Ouch! Sorry!

hahahaha... go ahead and do a quick search on those tires... they're an off brand cheap, piece of crap tire, on of the cheapest we carry in our store. Not to mention the rims are hideous.

Never bought a set of wheels in my life (obviously, ha!) which is why im asking opinions. Never even thought about the weight effecting performance. Thanks for your feedback.

yes. And they are forged which apparently is very light weight and durable.

go for the second ones. most people on driver will not be a fan of the chrome but if you like it, it's all that matters.
