black ones look 10x better...those chrome wheels dont fit the car...you need a smaller spoke...just my opinion..i do like chrome wheels i just dont think those look right on there..but i've seen worse......and i so wanna get one of those cars for my daily driver!

I dont care how many people have black rims on their cars, there is no way i would ever replace normal looking rims with something that ugly.

I would have sold them and made a quick buck.

Lexani Chrome rims are definatly not ugly,and I'm pretty sure the black 18's dont look like normal stock wheels either

Neons and srt-4's are the same thing,Its just a hopped up neon.If you don't belive me,try and take it to a dealer to trade it in.Then you will see how much of a neon it is when you lost over 6k trade in value on your car in less than a year.

well heres an update with the car washed and waxed and the rims all shined up.I love chrome in the summer

I dunno, i guess i just dont like the look. They dont belong IMO. I would of rather had the black ones.

it doesn't say neon any where on it ;) normal srt owners would be very dissapointed to hear you say that.

Saying that a srt isn't a neon is like saying a Z-71 isnt a silvarado and a denali isnt a yukon.

yeah,an srt is pretty much just a neon on steroids.I dont mind calling it a neon because when I smoke mustangs it just makes me feel better when I say to them that they just lost to a neon;)

nice car man but the lexanis gotta go they dont belong on a srt-4 the black looked so much better imo the lexanis belong on something more like a benz or caddi......oo and what kinda mustangs did you beat theres alot of different kinds out there but your srt-4 is preaty quick still cant beat a ls1 camaro 6 speed but still fast lol...
