    You know, that's EXACTLY what I was thinking, too. And in all honesty, I'm actually quite surprised that the majority of the responses here sound just like on that Mustang board in regards to the rims being too big. To each his own I guess. That 'stang looks like the f'n bomb! I thought the GT in Transformers was tight, but this fucks that one up! And it's in BGR red, too? (something I say when I see a red car similar in color to my two red cars - "Oh that's my style " when I see one)

    I remember when people were saying 18's were too big for the Galant and then when this one guy put 19's on - shit... It was too sweet. I look at pics of my Galant and the 18's are either just right or they look too damn small. Those 22's on that 'stang make the car look Bad Ass!

    you know, people's opinions might change once they see it in person. But it is true what you say. Most people hate until it becomes the norm. they do look big but they look good too. i'd like to see it in person and have a stronger opinion about it.

    I'll admit that they do look very large, but it looks tight with this car. Certain cars can get away with this look and IMO, this car can get away with it.

    I remember when I first seen the 19's on a Galant and I thought it looked just a little bit too big, but now, I've changed my mind and my next wheels I'm buying next year will be 19's.

    Kind of like this Galant with 20's below; Ordinarily, I would say that 20's look way too big on a 8G Galant, however, with the proper set up, it looks bad ass (i.e. it has the right looking wheel - 3" or more lip, 5 fins - not full face chrome/flush with the edge of the wheel and they are tucked. The car has a wide body kit installed). In the pic below, IMO, he should have larger brake rotors to offset the overall size of the wheel, but... it looks good despite the fact. I would like to see the pictures of the G outside of the shop to get a better view, but from these two angles, it looks really good with the wide body fenders added to the mix.

    Needs more 15", with tire. I'm not much into highway rolls, the only thing thats good for is going after street bikes and vipers, no way will it hook below 60.

    No problem, that is why I threw the pic in there, but sorry, I have no idea, other than this link: http://autoshow.permaisuri.com/Conte...20031020230118

    I don't think the guy is from the U.S.

    Are you kidding me. I'd pwn it with the trooper to 40 mph every day of the goddamned week. With wheels like that those tires dont have a prayer.

    big rims looks cool, but since there r to many holes and bumps out there, i rather focuse on ride confort and quality..
