Thanks for making me spit all my coffee on my monitor at work lol...those are pretty disgusting if you ask me. Chrome= nasty but that's just me.

I personally think all-chrome wheels are too flashy; this is a luxury sports coupe, it needs something more understated and aggressive to match.

definately not flashy, as all I plan to do is lower, tint and put wheels on it....for now....
I'd say an agressively slick look haha
