    Nice wheels for a trailer,not a classic car.
    Whats the reason for the big rims? Do you have the proper brakes to stop the extra rolling mass?
    I woulden't go more than 16" with stock brakes.

    That rockstar is too busy on a black car for my taste. Kind of distracting.

    Im just being polite, like when my wife asks, "Do These Jeans Make my Butt Look Big"? I always say "No Dear", but what I really want to say is "Damn Girl....Your Butt Makes Those Jeans Look Big".:rofl2:

    I'm not real a fan of the all black wheel. Not even on a truck. If I had to choose I would opt for something more nostalgic. With some silver on it. Here are a few that came to mind. (on black cars!)
