I think it looks good looks like the standard style AMG wheel chromed with a lip. Always was a fan of the simple clean design.

Yeah, chrome rims with a lip tend to draw a 'ghetto' feeling from some. I trust you. You look like an authority on what's ghetto or 'juggalicious' judging only by your avatar pic.

No? So, you won't be putting them on your or your fiance's car? Because I definitively didn't purchase any for you or your fiance to politely refuse an offer that didn't exist.

/here I was thinking this thread was about what I did for my fiance per her request and her appreciation of it. Little did I know, it's a thread about negative opinions about rims on a vehicle they don't own.

CDepp · 01-06-2013, 11:16 AM

Here was my imagined responses (before I remembered I am posting shiat on the internet):

Positive:
'Good looking wheels.'
'Nice. Your fiance must love 'em too!'
'Sharp.'
'Looks damn good on the Mercedes.'
etc.

Negative:
'I couldn't do it to my Mercedes, happy your fiance likes them.'
'Glad you got what you liked. Not my taste.'
'Not my taste, but your fiance likes them and you win on that alone.'
'I've never liked chrome, but your fiance seems to like them. Good on you.'
etc.

Internet troll expectations:
'That's whack! I don't know anyone who would like chrome.'
'I'd never do that to my car, makes it look ghetto.'
'Nope. Ugly. Sorry.'
'Could only go worse if you got spinners.'
etc.

Listen. I'm glad everyone has their opinions and their own taste in what they appreciate. I'm asking for a little maturity in your negative opinions as this was a gift for the woman I love. It has given her a new appreciation for a car we purchased 4 years ago, and she hated the split-spoke OEM rims that came with the car.
So, if your life sucks to the point that you cannot congratulate others on what they appreciate, regardless if it suits your taste, you can

and begin your own thread about hating (in this case particularly) chrome rims with a lip.
Do what you want. Just sayin'...

It's the internet man.

What do you expect?

As long as your wife loves them who cares. You reap the benefits while kids post their opinions on something that doesn't affect their lives.

Lol. Sometimes I forget over time. I went and spent some time watching Russian dash-cam videos of road rage to remind me.
