    Default Early Christmas Present

    Well I took advantage of a Black Friday Sale and bought a new set of wheels. I still cant decide if I like them or not.

    Yes, they look great.

    Though it didn't look bad before, either.

    They look similar to the 2013 GT500 SVTPP rims. I like them

    Doesn't look bad, but the previous setup looked really good.

    Just my opinion, don't let it sway yours!

    I like the wheels before. The new ones are a little too "busy" for me. As long as you like them though.....

    Both old and new are very nice. The only thing that vexes me is why you would buy something if you aren't sure you like it. Especially something that is as costly as a set of wheels.

    Well when i looked at pictures i liked them but when i saw them mounted in person i couldnt decide if its what i want or not. I was able to buy them for a huge savings on a black friday sale and i see used sets going for more than what i paid for new so i'm not worried.

    I see them as a lateral move. I think if the new wheels were darker, they'd look better.

    Stock wheels looked good and the aftermarket wheels look good as well. Either way you're good!

    Ahh- not quite but kind of buyer's remorse. I get it. I hate that too. Well, for what it's worth, I think they look great.
