They loog good, but I like the factory rims you have.

The pearl white is myfavorite color of all cars...
Especially at night.

Good call on the paint and wheels. Are the wheels black and white or black and chrome? If they were black and chrome I'd say go for it, but if they're white then see if a local paintshop can color-match the white parts to some degree.

I can't be sure because it doesn't say but I would guess that they're not chrome.

Sorry but that just looks nasty. Way too busy of a rim that seems out of place if you ask me. I think a nice clean five to eight spoke rim looks much more appropriate on our cars than some "thug" rims.

I like the white/black combo and I like to look of those rims. I run 20" and think they are perfect. I did see a 22" on a Riv and it seems a little too big... then again I think 18" are too small. Were they able to go scale with the photoshoping?

I just exactly covered the old rims, keeping the scale.

Maybe he is a thug lol afro
To be painfully honest though, I agree with Shintsu on this one. I will say however that I think those 22s look better than whats currently on it. But really opinions vary and it's about what your taste is and what you're about.

PS they will look WAY better on your riviera than they do on that Ford, I don't mind saying. You'd be doing justice for the Ford of nothing else.

I sold the 20" rims that were on it last year. I usually buy a set and sell them once summer is over. My friend just bought a Riviera with 22" rims and I cant let him do it bigger than me!

I was bored and so I have been looking through the pages of eBay at Buick wheels. I was looking for the center caps to see if they had any but came across some OEM wheels from the newer Buicks and I'm curious what these would look like on a Riv. Forgive for I don't offhand know the rim width on our cars but could someone use a pic of a white Riv and put these on it (sorry, I don't have any side pics of my car and it's dark now):

Also curious about what these would look like:

They'll look good. I've been on ebay watching for a while. Problem is, good ones cost $$$.

Well, that first one is only $100 with around $50 shipping. I think the last one there is $190 with $40 shipping. Speaking of which, I think the last one is an 18" rim off the Lucerne.
