Looks good. BUT, because a family member had one of these back in the day--I don't know if I could have your wheels. They are not the same--but that is what first came to my mind. Kinda like Roseann Arnold and Angelina Jolie are both women--similar by gender--but you definitely have the Angelina Jolies. Make sense

It would be nice to see some lower rear shots to show some meat from the tire...like this...........
people are always buying and then selling their rims on this moddafokka
but they look good.
