I think most black rims usually look nice on other certain colors, like white and silver cars. I decided to waste some money on wheels last year for my car and think they look nice.

True. Those fit, but if it wasnt for that silver ring around the rim it wouldn't look nearly as good. |

| Black ones are cool and not too blingy and flashy like those damn chrome ones. I'm not a big car guy but I think those look pretty decent :) |

yep. polished lip is a must, as it contrasts the rest of the wheel. without it, it just looks like a big black hole. |

I've never really liked the TE-37's. I don't like all the angles on the spokes themselves. I prefer a more rigid look to the spokes. |

I like the way they look, like its getting sucked into the center. The offsets really have an effect on it.
SSR Professors SP1s are dope too.

The design of a tire, as well as the rubber compound type, has a significant effect on how a tire performs. The R compounds are very sticky, race compounds, whereas regular passenger tire compounds are less sticky. Also, tread design and sidewall construction have a huge effect on the performance with handling. Some tires have better performance than others in the same conditions. For a street tire, I'd say that tread design has the largest effect on handling.

Very true that offsets have a massive effect. i usually like odd offsets that are harder to find or must be ordered. Which also has a massive effect on those TE-37's looks. I have seen some that look alright at a low, more FWD type of offset, but I don't prefer the RWD offsets for those wheels usually. |
