Default What about my rims?

I got these rims for 100 dollars. I talked to some people and the said they look nice. I dont really like them but what is you opinion? I know once I lower it that it will look better but I will be lowering it in a few days.

I'm on the fence not great, not terrible. For a $100 I'd rock them.

Before I can make a decision on whether or not I like them, I need to know the width and offset

Looks like you got yourself a cheap set of Kosei Sniper wheels.

And for a 100US$ I think a bargain, maybe paint them gunmetal or something.

to a T- 10 spoked, and tapered at the ends from the middle. Find a Honda EMblem that fits and your golden ^_-

I say paint them, with a drop, and they will look 10X better

Not bad for $100.

I would change the rims out to something better once you are willing to spend more on rims though.

The rim dimension is 15x7 with a 38mm offset. The tires are 205 50 15's. I plan on getting them powder coated but I just want to sell them and get some nice buddy club p-1's. and upgrade to 16's

Maybe you should paint them instead,,Powdercoating cast wheels weakens them a bit,,Ive seen wheels actually break apart at auto-x type events..
