Need honest opinions

Ok I got these rims at a really good price 1200 for everything. There really are not to many rims that will fit the brembo's and ones that I like. I have been on stock 18's for quite some time now and just wanted to get 20's . I like the axis penta style of rims and I know this is not the penta but it's mesh style rim.

I am going to powdercoat the inside of the rim DG color (or hyperblack) and leave the lip chrome. I kinda want to return them but there really isn't a rim I want instead besides common ones like the axis penta, or shine but I am not really crazy about those either. I do feel those are a step up from this because this rim does not even have a name or brand.

One thing I can be sure of is not to many people have this rim. Anyway just let me know what you honestly think. 2000 is the most I would ever want to spend on rim also.

They look good, and a little different than all the other wheels out there in the same style. Only downside, is they are probably a heavy one piece cast wheel. But so are the Axis, MRR, Sevas... etc. So no real reason to get new wheels. They'd look great with a DG center like you plan on doing.

I think they look pretty good. Paint them like you want and there's no reason to get anything else.

Keep 'em. They look good on your car. During these tough times, not everybody can afford a Volk...beside, they are very common nowadays.

Get some spacers and save up for something better. Going to a set of Axis wheels really isn't much of an upgrade.
