| Your rims look great, Samuel.Chris: Those rims you are looking at will look fantastic on your Riv. Be sure and check Craigslist before you buy. You might be able to save a considerable amount of $$$ if that is an issue. I bought the 18" rims and tires with 90% tread for my Reatta on Craig's for $250. That's quite a deal I think. | |

| I've been looking on craigslist and ebay, but can't find these used. Found them for about $130 each. Which is the cheapest I've found so far. | |

| Well, I like the look with the new wheels, but when I flip between the real thing and the sketch, I stay on the sketch | |

| I would have to say a sport look. Mainly just wanting to find a set of rims that look good and not funny on the car. | |

| They both look good. The top one is slightly sportier, imo. _________________ '05 GTO 6.0L • 6-spd • 95k miles • 0-60: 4.8s • 16.9 avg MPG • Nelson Ledges Lap: 1:26'95 Celica GT 2.2L • 5-spd • 165k miles • 0-60: yes'98 SC Riviera • 281k miles • 298 HP/370 TQ • 0-60: 5.79s • ET: 13.97 @ 99.28 • 4087 lb • 20.1 avg MPG • Nelson Ledges Lap: 1:30 3.4" pulley • AL104 plugs • 180º t-stat • FWI w/K&N • 1.9:1 rockers • OR pushrods • LS6 valve springs • SLP headers • ZZP fuel rails KYB GR2 struts • MaxAir shocks • Addco sway bars • UMI bushings • GM STB • Enkei 18" EV5s w/ Dunlop DZ101s • F-body calipers EBC bluestuff/Hawk HP plus • SS lines • Brembo slotted discs • DHP tuned • Aeroforce • Hidden Hitch^^^ SOLD ^^^ '70 Ninety-Eight Holiday Coupe 455cid • 116k miles^^^ SOLD ^^^ | |

| One style: a quick and obviously fake sketch. No calipers or other gear visible. My Riv. | |

| I prefer option 1. I don't like the fake bolts on 2. I think #1 looks clean and classy, as well as sporty. | |

| Thanks for the input guys. I think I'm going to stick with the ones I was going to get before. Which are the ones in the top picture. Probably get them ordered today. | |

| There's a set of 16" OZ racing F1 available locally for $200. Would they look good on a riv or would they look out of place ? They're a bit similar to the GSX wheels. stock photo only. Actual rim is 5 hole. | |
