    The perspective is off and calipers are backwards, but you get the idea.

    IMO, the Ion 114's are ugly as sin,
    and the Akita AK3 look pretty nice, but I absolutely hate the universal lug pattern.

    IMO the Akita Ak3's look much better,

    BUT again, it's your car...Just dont throw 24's on there, and you'll still be liked by GPF

    That picture is awesome.. almost makes up my mind.... Can you do that with the other wheels? what do you mean the perspective is off? I have another set I have been looking at to..

    I know I have asked this before but the tires are 235/45 its only 1.1% so not really a big deal right? aload rating of 94 is ok?

    Yes, I dislike them that much...XD

    Chrome is awesome...but the Rim style isnt, and then it being chrome ontop of that...Just doesnt work with the car...

    Looks more like it belongs on someones car who says "yo dawg, check out my chrome ****"...

    You sir, I will get a 'Meh'


    Looks good, but not my flavor of icecream.

    Fills the wheelwell nicely, and fits pretty nice too.

    Sorry I didn't see this before you bought the wheels. I have chrome Ion wheels on my truck and the quality of their chrome is terrible. They look good for a couple years and then start to pit. Mine only saw a couple thousand miles a year, stayed in the garage and never saw snow. They rarely saw rain and still started pitting within a couple years. Hope you have better luck with your wheels than I did with mine.
