Default D-TEC M8 wheel. how do you like them?

they'd look better if the car was slammed but I just used the first car i had in the shop to test fit
EK PICTURED has 225-45-15 hankook tires**

hopefully sometime next week I get a nice car thats slammed thatll look real good. EK , EG and a DC to model the wheels for you guys

with 205 50 15's the setup wont bulge too much but the fit is very nice and flush**

If they weren't a Weds knock-off, I would feel even better about them. But, they are a good looking wheel.

Are they polished aluminum, or chrome dipped?

They don't look bad by any means, but a little to flashy for me.
