Welcome dude. I vote "I like it". Most think that style of wheel is too outrageous, but I would put them on my classic in a heartbeat. Actually the ones I like are six spoke, but about the same.

Those DUBs on your ride? It says on your profile "Enkei" and in the description, DUBs. What size did you get? From his username, I'm guessing they're 20's. Welcome... It is nice to have another 2nd-genner here... you all used to be a small group, but the numbers are rising now! P.S. For instructions on how to post images, see this thread.

They kinda look like 17's.. I know on the classics, a 20 on our car is much bigger looking than his, although that could be wrong in this case. I am in no way doubting him or his ride, only suggestions.

Clean Aurora indeed, those wheels look perfect. In fact, they look a lot like the 20s Javi had Welcome to the club, Dave! -Shawn

i apologize for using the "dub" term in a casual way...i know its a brand of wheel (which mine are not), but im just using it in the slang way of talkin about 20 inch wheels, haha. but yea, they are 20 inch rims, although on these big cars they really dont look like it. I used to have 18's on my 95 cutlass, and thats abou thow big they looked. but on to answering more questions:
the wheels are 20 in ch by 8.5 inches wide, made by ETX...which is the "luxury" division on enkei (meaning their off brand that makes mostly chrome wheels as opposed to enkeis mostly alloy wheels.) the tires are toyo proxy 4's, 245/35/r20. thats an interesting story into how i got those, i should prolly post it in a thread of its own! (my first tires, which were made my ventus, all split on the side). im in class right now, gotta jet....but thanks for the info on posting pics, ill do that soon, and thank sagain for the warm welcome! i feel like i'm gonna enjoy this place a bit too much
