    I can't believe how much difference a set of rims make. I had these rims on a previous car(94 gp 4-door) and they just got slapped on my 98. I hadn't given the rims much thought because i had already crossed them off my list. Then this winter when i saw the KV5's for $100 a piece i couldn't resist.

    This is in 4/05 right after i got the car


    This is spring of last year


    Here she is today

    I agree the old rims took away from the look. The car looks put together now.
