Default Customizing My Rims

Well I don't have the money to buy rims, so I'm adding my own little flavor to my current rims. You definitely won't see another monte with rims that look like these.

Screw you because I love your rims you have. LOL. It really makes me want to cry how much I love the rims you have. And wait aren't the summer ones you did weren't they chrome already? Why would you do that! lol Only reason I'm doing mine is cause the finish is gay as hell.

I hate to say it but I think he may be right. The black hubs are cool enough but the shape maybe shouldn't be accented

Hahaha, I saw what he meant, I don't really think they look like flowers, but whatever lol. I'll get around to the wheels eventually. LOVE your monte btw, especially the tire/rim combo.
