Well in my opinion if your gonna go black rims, go all black. Don't buy those ones with the little chrome strip. Go all black for that racing look. Im not sure which ones though, red tires sound sweet. Check out my yellow tires on my monte.

that looks sick man, id really like the rims you have, if anyone had those i would buy them. the refurbished ones are like 275 a piece, so i might as well get somethin else for a lil cheaper. where did you find those yellow letter tires, I wonder if that place would have red letter tires too. thanks for the input

I like the idea of black on black, however the red letter tires thing is on you. Also, I like the idea of having a polished lip instead of all black, but that's just me.

your car black too? do you have any pics? its a big decision, i gotta weigh my options.. i found those goodyear Nascar tires, but only in white lettering and the biggest tire rack has it is for a 16 inch rim.

Do whatever you want. I can tell you what I like and what looks good to me but that's my opinion, do what you can afford and think looks good!!

I like the black with the chrome trim myself. Like "The Black Machine 29's" rims.


I am not sure how red letter tires would look but sounds like it might look pretty cool. I'll photo shop Yello_Monte's yellow tires when I get a chance and post it...

bought the diamond cut 16 inch wheels of ebay last night, right outa the box. i was gonna get the 17s but i really like those Nascar tires and i haven't been able to find them in a 17. so today im gonna order those tires too. I searched all over for red letter but couldnt find them so ill just go with the white letter, i think that will look good. my bank account isnt lookin good after this though ill tell you that but its worth it. haha
