alright, i know that as a "mod" i'm not supposed to say bad things, or start trouble, so i'm going to offer some "constructive critisism" and be mature about this so as to not piss off the other "mods" and get banned or something..

*achem*

those are the ugliest wheels i've ever seen, they simply do not match your car, furthermore, the color of them is just plain wrong for the color of the car and they're much to busy for them to look good, standing still OR moving. do yourself a favor, and get your money back. sell them, return them, whatever you want. go with a silver wheel, a big five spoke if you can, or maybe chrome, MAYBE. black and chrome is a huge no-no for the blue of your ride, and dropping it will only enhance the awkwardness you've got going on there.

...im not sure how to say this

flippinboulala · 06-22-2007, 08:25 AM

well the whole point of the konig hotswap is to have the little chrome pieces on the rim the same color as the car so after i get that painted it should look better but to say its ugly is well... wrong. a lighter colored wheel, like silver, would look like total ass because of how bright the car is, the wheel would look dull. i was origionally going to go with an all black but saw these and liked them alot. as for lowering i dont know how it would look bad. it would make it not so monster-truck like. so im not being a jerk when i say you have no freaking clue what your talking about, just some "constructive critisism"

and why does everyone hate aero blue!?!?!!? hahaha

That's a nice Ion. Does it come in mens?

ShadowSC2 · 06-22-2007, 10:38 PM

common...leave the ion alone. There's nothing wrong with it. I think it will look decent if the chrome of the wheels are painted to match the car...make sure to paint the rivits too. Don't knock someone for wanting to do things their way just because YOU don't like it. I think the rims look great....although the color of the car i don't care for. But that is an OPINION. Keep going with it man. Do what you wanna do its YOUR car

haha the wheels are just plain bad, and do not match the car at all. they highlight how teeny the rotors are, and painted or not, will look awkward on that car. what he should've done is kept the stock wheels on, and gotten the redline spoiler or something more sporty instead of wasting money on a set of wheels that are simply laughable, and will be moreso once painted a light blue. his opinion or mine, the general population will agree with me (if they have any sense in their minds), so i will continue to say so.

edit: i did a lil research and he should have gotten the chrome body model instead of the black, that would've helped a little. really the best wheel for the car with that black/chrome is the konig beyond graphite (if one has GOT to stay with konig which are usually large, ugly, and very flashy) do a google search for that ish, and imagine them painted light blue. 10x better than the hotswaps.

Me no like..............sorry.

Your car would look better in black then that fairy nice blue

I am not going to comment on your rims though because I have bought Konigs before... but I had Divas and they have much bigger spokes then yours.

flippinboulala · 06-23-2007, 10:09 AM

i shouldnt have waisted money on rims and should have bought a spoiler? what would that do for me at all? the beyonds are basically a mustang rim except curve inwards which would look just...awesome? rather have some sweet wheels and tires that a big dumbass wing on my gayblue car
