Question What do you think of these rims?

I saw this car on www.forum.screamer-hardstyle.com it seems to have divided opinion. Personally I think they look great, but what do you think?

Those at 19 inch look sweet. I'd say as long as they were big like 19's or bigger they'd look sweet on alot of cars. They need a nice big bodykit to compliment them though. And a mad paint job.

I quite like them. I think they look right on that car but I'm sure it will look just so wrong on others.
