I must be totally whacked! I like the coupes more than the convertibles and I like the wheels. Maybe I'm just old...that's what my high school age daughter keeps telling me!

Nice. I just don't think it's wise for me to spend 10+K on wheels. I would rather fly to France for the weekned....:-)

they cost half of that, if your going to spend 60,000+ on a car.....i dont think spending 5k on really nice wheels is a waste of money at all
Good point!

5k on wheels huh...and you all think that is fine?! Did i miss something?
First off, they will get all the brake dust and get pitted, second, it don't matter how much you spend on a car...hell even if it did cost 100K for the car...the wheels get abused and are hard to maintain....
If you're going to spend 60-100k on the car, it better come with the wheels and rims you like to begin with!

No thanks, I'll take the 5k and still spend it on a weekend in Paris any day! (just my opinion....so don't drag this out another 10 pages)

I agree racer...I like it but don't love it...like that its not my car too! I would have rather seen chrome than color matched...black is the only color to me that could pull the rim matching paint color off...love the lip but not the rear offset...

Some car..........like the rims too.......although I'm sure there are other versions that may suit even better..........."all a matter of individual taste"
Just like spending £5k - £10k on another set of rims..........me personally, I wouldn't do it.........I'd rather get the car with the rims I liked in the first place, but, we're all different.
