Hey what do you guys think of these 4 Azul speedmesh rims with Toyo tires for my silver 2000 Dodge Neon?

RE: AZUL Rims
well personally i dont really like black with a chrome lip. its been wayy overdone, and i also dont like when there is a lot going on with the rim. but, it is your car, so if you like them then do it and dont listen to anything people say

RE: AZUL Rims
let me just say this to you right now... when i gopt my car the girl that owned it before me had 18" Konig imagine's on the car and well it is lowered like 1.6-1.8 inches, the ride was HORRRRRRIBLE every LITTLE bump was like driving into a 1 and a half foot deep pothole i mean the handling on smooth pavement was amazing but everything else was horrrrible specially b/c with the 18" wheel you need to use VERY low profile tires which also runs you the risk of bending the lip of the rim when ever you hit a tiny bump which will cause either your tire to go flat slowly or it may even bend the lip so much that the rim actually cuts the tire and causes a blowout which if you going at anything over 40mph can be very very very dangerous... i do like the rims style but i would not buy them in the 18" size.... personally i wouldn't buy a wheel over 17"... dont mean to discourage you or anything im just tellin you from experience that 18" rims suck to drive with

and why is that? if you have 16s, you look like you are too cheap to put real rims on a car. go 17s they work fine

RE: AZUL Rims
The roads here suck, Im probably going with 16's. I know alot of people who have low pros and do fine. I would just prefer not cracking a rim and having to buy another.
