I like the rims on it right now best, lol.
But if you go with either of those? then the first. I really dont like #2.

[-Alero-]

i really wish i could see some gunmetal rims with a polished/machined/chrome lip. on my color car.

and yeah these rims look good but they just arent big enough, i kick myself in the ass everytime i realize i have 17's

get something like that in gunmetal w/ the polished chrome lip. on your shade of gray it would look awesome.

[-Alero-]

hmmm they dont exactly scream out attention they deserve you know?

if i could see what those would look like in the gunmetal on an alero i'd consider that style.

but i appreciate the advice

[pawzbear]

oooh yeh gunmetal w/ the chrome lip sounds perfect on your car... I saw some REALLY nice ones today.. didnt see what kind they were tho..

[-Alero-]

i'd love to see my second rim choice in gunmetal on my car......jesus......

[pawzbear]

its gotta have the chrome lip tho, other wise when ur drivin it just looks like a big black blob for wheels, lol.

well offcourse, thats why i prefer a machined/polished/chrome lip.

[Spilner521]

i like the rims you have on there now. its not the best job but i did a quick photoshop of what they would look like gunmetal with a chrome lip. they would actually look pretty sweet with your color car.

Im a sucker for black rims with the chrome lip

[Travis99Alero]

stick with chrome, you'll be glad you did.

[FantomForceCustoms02]

Yea it looks way better in chrome, just get a bigger size.

[FormulaNERD]

get some 19" ADR m-sport, hyperblack. and then get the lip polished.

or for something different, check out the falken koblenz, i like the way it looks.

i would also reccomend the bbs rs-gt, but they cost more than your car is worth, and you probably wouldnt want that.

I agree, get 19's i got 18's and wasn't please..i didn't even put them on...impulse buying i guess.hahha..but yeah..totally 19's gunmetal with chrome lip....tight to the guitar bite!

[Menace]

Whats the biggest tire you can put on an alero?

19" ?

[pawzbear]

im also digging the motegi FF7's http://www.wheelmax.com/product.asp?ProdId=3340

[-Alero-]

ka anyways i looked at the ADR m-sports...........those rims would look like the back of my balls after work. those rims are for you Golf f***s.

and i couldnt imagien what those koblenz would look like :wacko:

and 4 grand is a waste of money for rims that look like ass http://www.fast44.com/bbsrsgt18x8.html once again those are for you Golf f***ers.

[FormulaNERD]

ok then. whatever you say. just quit being a lemming, you dont have to be like everyone else to have decent rims. different doesnt mean not good enough.

[FormulaNERD]

i think the koblenz would look good, but there might be others you'd rather have....

hmm nice nice, but im still on the fence about chrome vrs. gunmetal.

i mean yo usaid yourself yo uhate chrome but you liked the chroem on my car

[FormulaNERD]

yea, chrome looks good on your car. but i'm kinda on the fence with everyone. i think as long as you have some nice chrome lips you should be good.

[-Alero-]

hey i'd appreciate it if someone could photoshop me a picture of the following rims onto my car.

here are some pictures that might be helpfull:

im trying to find a good picture of the lowenhart S5R's. but heres the best i can get.

[FormulaNERD]

hey, those last rims you posted are the newer version of the rims i had... just so you know. but of course mine werent chrome... i'm still a fan of the 5zigens

[-Alero-]

yeah and these lowenharts are 3 piece just the way you like em. and apparently the arent cheap : /

whats the exact name of the 5zigens? i gforget what they look like, i think they were on NFSU2

[FormulaNERD]

mine were 5zigen copse, and the replacements for them are the Hyper5ZR's

and like i said, they're almost identical to the lowenharts you posted, at first i thought they were actually the 5zr's. but the 5zr is a little more aggressive i think. and they're cheaper because you can get 1, 2 or 3 piece.
