Default Super Black w/ 20 inch Epic's

Alot of clowns on this board said I was "Rice" or "Ghetto" for putting these on. I think they look sweet.

Everyone's entitled to their opinion. Do they look as good as you thought they would? Can you post another one...more from the side? It's hard to tell what it really looks like from such a narrow angle.

Thanks,

the Z can pull off 20's pretty well. but I dont care for the chrome, when I look at that picture, even from such a bad angle to see the wheels, my attention is drawn to the rims. IMO this is not what I want with MY car, I prefer the car to be the show case, and the rims to add to the car.

but thats what I want, you did what you want, and thats fine too.

dude don't listen to them, they are just jealous. Those look way better than stock and you are sure to get some looks on your ride. I'll be getting some too some time soon perhaps.

Default Epic's

I bought these from a guy w/a blue Z, so I got to see them on his car first. I am very happy with them, I can tell you that over twol thousand people have come up to the car at a local car show in Scottsdale, AZ and each and every one of them has said the rims make the car look much better.
It makes other Z's w/stock rims look bland when there side by side.

Not really opposed to chrome or 20" wheels... but I've never acquired a taste for mags whose "spokes" widen as the go to the outside of the rim... looks too "hot wheels" for me.

I agree with the "to each his own" mentality. As long as your happy with what you bought, so be it. You should modify your car for your own happiness, not to impress others. But then again, everyone has the right to their opinion.

I prefer the JDM look as to the flashy look (funtionality over substance), and I must admit that I have ragged on the "bling bling" style of modification. But once again, as long as your happy with what you got, and your not a dick about it, who cares what everyone thinks.

why?

IMO those belong on a bling-bling escalade, not a performance oriented Z.

But i guess to each his own.

46lbs a piece?

How's the ride with the dubs on there? Heck, we have a couple people with 20" rims who can answer that. =)

Looks great! I bet, all the rappers envy you.
I just don't understand why didn't you go with 21'? You can put so much more chrome and weight on 21' rims! You probably wount be able to drive at all, but who cares, if you have powerful enught sub to rock the car. You can save so much gas!
