Smile New Rim Pics...I like 'em!

Finally got a chance to wash the car, and take a few photos of the 968 rims installed. I think they really make the car look more modern! I just have to watch the curbs even more--these front rims really stick out!

Gotta pick a new Avatar--Which one?

I really like your car (I like white 944's especially) and those wheels are nice...but call me a traditionalist or something but I prefer the stock D90s on your car for some reason (they look larger or something too) Just my opinion, everyone sees things differently...

Andy ; like the new wheels, that last pic makes that car look like the bullet that they can be. Shows the true sportyness of the breed.

Thanks all. I really like these rims better than the D90's. I think D90's look better on darker cars, for some reason! White cars need extra umph due to the plain whiteness...5-spoke rims add dimension.

Simon--Two-tone?? Glad you sold your non-fitting rims!

Marc--Too good for snows!

Hey SoCal--Thanks for down-sizing my photo! I have photoshop, but STILL cant make the photos small enough. I am clueless. Can you do the other ones, so I can decide which looks best to me!?
