Honestly I'm not a fan of those wheels on a G, they look too much like the OEM 19s. I want to change the look of my car with new rims. However you got a smoking deal and if you like them, rock them with a big smile!

I dig the car and actually that was the color I really wanted for my vehicle but ended up with silver instead. The rims look nice. But I am so attached to the 19" Rays especially after reconditioning them. When I see other cars with new rims I really cannot see myself following in their footsteps. Maybe in a few years I will just to change things up but with all honesty I would probably just recondition my Rays again but instead powdercoat them with a gun metal flake look. Gun metal on silver is awesome looking. Plus chrome is out. Gray and black is the new chrome in my opinion. It even applies to Harley and import motorcycles. Most are shooting for a much darker look. One because it looks stealth but two because chrome and high polished parts are just a pain in the *** to maintain and keep clean.

Couldn't disagree more. I have chrome wheels and chromed pieces in my engine bay including my plenum and all they require is a wipe with a damp cloth for maintenance to look brand new. Polished parts aren't much different. Originally Posted by Jiggyfingers

And as far as dark wheels, they don't work on all colors of car, they'd look like crap on mine.

Those aren't genuine piaa's. Piaa's have 2 rivets between the fork of the spokes. Why lie?

To each is own I guess. Chrome werks for some and others maybe not. As of late I am into stealth. Don't know why but it looks cool to me. Then again I'll see a chrome set of rims on a car and admire it. I just haven't seen to many G's with chrome wheels that caught my eye.Originally Posted by Blue Dream

Not to disagree with you here because you are right, but are you aware stern was making wheels almost 20 years before PIAA entered the market? And Stern had this design WAY before the release of PIAA supper rozzas.Originally Posted by jdmgee35

Those are surely sterns. My first set of wheels were Sterns, those exact models so I know for sure those are not PIAAs
