Dale Earnhardt Jr. Killer Rims-your thoughts

Anyone seen these rims on a F-body. What do you think. I like the look at these rims but would love to see them on a car before purchase. Anyone have photoshop skills? Have 2002 formula these rims would be going on.

thanks for feedback. Cost wise actually not to bad. 245 a tire for 18". Oddly if I want to go to 20" start at 200 and 239. 20" are to big I think. Not into the huge tire thing. More interested in good looks and good performance.

I don't really like them, and it's a corny name too.

name is corny, no doubt but I do like the style. Wish could get a black ice type of finish but like black better than the chrome they have. They are available in both 8.5" and 10" in 18's. Found them for as low as 183 each direct from american racing. If I finally pull the trigger and get them I will post pic. Sadly, once I get wheels I guess I will have to lower car to make it look right also. Oh, darn, more parts to buy.

FYI: "Killer" is the name of his dog. Not as in "Killer Dude!!"
