Verde Jaggedge Machined w/Black Accent

03JGMonte 12-12-2011 06:47 PM

Those look pretty good

blackbeauty89 12-12-2011 06:50 PM

couldn't really say unless there was a pic of them on the car.

imo, i like the wheels you have on it in your sig..

I am a fan of the wheels you already have. they remind me of the old Cragers

the new ones aren't bad I just like what you already have better.

xxtheshockerxx 12-12-2011 06:58 PM

I'm not a fan of either. Not sure what kind of look your going for but it just doesn't go together for me. The Aeros look too gaudy but I like them better than the Verde.

BlackRainSS 12-12-2011 08:05 PM

I like the aeros wouldnt mind having them in black for my monte, also like the Verdes but not as much as your current rims.

Nice Looking Wheels

I also like your current wheels, but the Jaggedge look pretty good. If you could get the accent of the wheels painted body color I think they would look fantastic! :thumbsup:

monte carlo 3831 12-12-2011 08:27 PM

kinda look decent, but kinda on the fence about them....... It took me a good few months to pick a set of wheels on tirerack!

Sparky-88 12-12-2011 08:37 PM

Definitely sharp looking wheels - kind of a modern look. I actually like the Aero's better, but that's probably because I'm an Old Guy and they remind me of the Cragar's that I grew up with. Either way, you can't go wrong.

77gp 12-12-2011 08:52 PM

I do like the Aeros somewhat but really want something different. That tirerack photo looks nothing like my car and I dont think would resemble it at all. I thought about painting the Aeros the color of my car but everyone on here was against it. I thought it would look cool if they came out with a good shine like my car. I am getting some different tires and they will have some white letters painted on them so that will make a difference to. There is a thread around here somewhere with my wheels photochopped to car color, I will have to look. I like black/silver wheels but they clash with the color of my car.

Here the pic but picture it with White lettered Eagle RSA tires. I think it would look cool, Different, just so many chrome wheels out there.
Second pic is my very first attempt put white letters or at the the look of it. I like it.

AwesomeSS 12-12-2011 09:07 PM

I like the look of your current rims too - old school!

lougreen03 12-12-2011 10:54 PM

I didn't like them when I saw the picture. I do like the look of them on the car that 03SSLE posted.

03JGMonte 12-12-2011 10:59 PM

They do look good on the car

Well, that is their version of an '07 SS with Black Amethyst paint. I have a basic graphics program but I'm not talented enough to change the color of the ground effects. :( I like the looks of the Aeros as they are, but don't care much for the painted version of them in the photos you posted. They blend in and get lost. I think a two-tone using body color on the accent of the Jaggedge wheels would look really good, but that's just my opinion. What's important is that you are happy with the decision you make no matter what the opinion of others is. ;)

Montecarloguy07 12-13-2011 11:21 AM

i like them alot. I think they would look really good on a black monte or a white one.

77gp 12-13-2011 11:30 AM

Wel,l I just listed my Aero's on Craigslist. If they sell, I am buying the Jaggedge rims and getting new tires. The tires I have are great but cant be switching them from rim to rim all the time as I have been. Plus they aren't a tire I can paint any decent lettering on. Thanks for all your comments as they are welcomed beng positive or negative. Thats what I was wanting. :thumbsup:

I'll help you out.

I kind of messed up the rocker - but it gives a pretty good idea, and I darkened the paint a bit since your paint usually looks more black then purple.

77gp 12-13-2011 11:42 AM

That looks alot better Mike. Thanks I just dont think their program shows the wheels quite as they should. Compare that pic to the actual rim. Looks a bit different IMO. Pardon my bad white lettering but it gets the point across.

That's true. You really loose the black on the wheels and you just get the thin chrome lines on it. I never did care for Tireracks "view on vehicle" thing.

77gp 12-13-2011 11:54 AM

I added some lettering in above post.

werewolf-odst 12-13-2011 12:42 PM

those will look awesome on your car, i will go for, and if you dont like it, you can throw on the current ones, which are also good, win/win!!

Jester_20 12-13-2011 01:22 PM

unfortunately i'm with the rest of em, I'm liking the aeros

How much are you selling them for? CL link?

77gp 12-13-2011 07:50 PM

Yea, I am not tryng to get rich. Just for the fact that two of them arent completely true as they say. I dont understand how they arent, as there isnt a mark one on the rim lips suggesting a curb job. Like I said, I drove them all year and they were fine. Could just feel a slight vibe at about 70.

Jester_20 12-13-2011 09:57 PM

that is a steal jerry!!! If only i didn't have bills :( I'm sure you're gonna get rid of these in no time GLWS for some AMAZING wheels
