Default how would this look?

Does anyone have a car with the Ebony Pearl Effect finish? Looking to quite possibly put these wheels on it.

Please post a pic or any input if you have wheels that kinda look like this ( especially color ) i am not sure if i am crazy about them, but it seems like a good deal. Guy says tires have 75% tread and rims are in pretty decent shape with minor scuffs.

5 wheels ( with tires ) plus an extra tire?? got him down to $400

Thanks in advance

god damnit! i cant argue with your logic. Plus you are probably one of the most knowledgeable dudes on AF.

its not the cash exchange that im worried about, im just trying to this not look like it belongs to 16 year old punk spending his parents loot.

Those wheels will instantly make you look like a 16 year old. Don't do it.

And in all honesty, if you're a teenager then you're going to look like you're just spending your parent's loot no matter what. I was 17 and fresh out of high school when I picked mine up and everyone thought mommy and daddy bought it as a grad present or something.

I didnt mean it like that. I wish my folks still paid for all my crap. Appreciate it while you can, the second i got my diploma from college my father handed me a folder with all of the student loan information. He said congrats when i opened it up and saw i have over 30gs to pay off

I just cant be driving around my office with a car that looks retarded. Thats all i meant.
