Red looks pretty crazy, but what the hell. It looks cool, kind of strange, but a crazy thing like option2 style. It kind of seems like everyone is clowning you, and thats not right. It just seems that these days, everyone would prefer to see a set of black SW388 or some MF8/10's. I say just let the guy be different.

I think the rims look great. Did you powdercoat them yourself? I have seen kits for sale. The only thing that you need is an electric oven to bake the painted item.

I like them. **** you get the blingie bling and they are not chrome. Powdercoating is the sh*t. I am going to get the kit to do it myself. I just have to score a *****y electric oven.

(aside: Rick Hunter--excellent screenname!!!)

Yellow wheels--kinda cool

Yellow wipers and other accents--too much of a good thing

What kind of rims are those anyways? The yellow ones. I think any powder coated rim looks kind of strange. Not in a bad way, it is just people are not ready to see that kind of thing. Most would people only like silver rims, or chrome ... I like Powder coated wheels, mine are powder coated gold. If you like it, it's a good thing... atleast it is different than normal.
