Yeah don't worry about what other people think too much when it comes to aesthetics. If you like it, someone else probably will too, but you can't please everybody. I think some of the most "award winning" cars on the show scene right now look like poop, but obviously the majority don't agree or they wouldn't be winning awards. At the end of the day you should build your car for you, but that's just me, I've always thought the car show circuit and mentality was lame.

A set of "nice" wheels always looks better and doesn't even have to be much more expensive if you shop used, Craigslist, Honda-Tech, NWP forums. There's a few cars on here that had knock-offs and switched to better quality wheels later and it made a HUGE difference IMO. Cars looked "nice" before but looked "GOOD!" just by switching wheels.

But if you just want something to play around with for now there's nothing wrong with Konigs. They won't blow up while you're driving.

The rest of the world doesn't care but there are a few "special people" that will snipe from the crowd about other peoples choices.

haha thanks guys! i appreciate the input
