Ok, well a friend of mine got some tape strip to put around the edge of his wheels and it looked great,
So i thought i'd photoshop it onto my GTS rims to see how it would look, so whaddya reckon? Before:  After:  EDIT: Damn, i was hoping the smilies would work on the poll, but you get the idea right... Worst. Moderator. Ever.

looks good, it will kind of protect against curb rash, and if you get it, put new ones on.

Not really my cup o' tea, IMO it interrupts the fluidity of the black-on-black between the wheels and the tires.

Solid contrast  but if your not using a wet shine though

I like it - it's original as far as GTS wheels are concerned.
