what do you think of this??

http://wheelnext.com/default.cfm?action=dspWheel&MODEL=RAZR&color=SILVE R%20(GLOSS%20FINISH)

i was thinking of getting these wheels for my car by next month. there tires and rims for 600 bucks (silver gloss). i guess what i want to know is if you guys think i should keep looking for other rims, or maybe wait and see what run into or any thing else you guys thinkin.

I'm voting yes, but you might look at the R-1 version of these rims. I like them a little better because they have a bit more of a "tech" look to them and they are available in gunmetal or hyperblack.

P.S. - I would avoid WheelsNext. They never have anything in stock and they keep you on hold for 20+ minutes pretty often.

They just look too basic. Needs to pop more.

yes, i know, but i thought about it and figured the smaller tire size would change my gearing (slightly) and help me at the track.

I like them. They're sporty looking and not too flashy. I think they'd look good in gunmetal or black on your dark blue car. The smaller tires will also make your speedometer read faster than you are actually going. I'd stick to the correct size tires if I were you.

And don't worry about what the poll says. That's just everyone elses opinion. If you like them get them. If not, look for different ones.
