buying these wheels next pay day "maybe"

When I was looking around for my FX I saw a LC with oem chrome 20's and I thought it looked great. I'm personally looking to have my 20's stripped, polished and cleared because its not quite as bling as chrome and doesn't add weight.
 
I actually just thought of somehting! and why I did not catch this before idk? but these wheels are staggered. a big no no for awd's so this is a pass for me. I would like bc coilovers but i dont know maybe i should just wait a bit and see what happens i got alot of christmas stuff to buy also im buying my wife a system for her mazda3 hatchback that will be a pretty penny. but im hoping that will open the door for me to buy one for my fx aswell,lol a couple orion hcca 12.2 sub and a killer amp i would be happy :tup: ill keep my eye out for more good deals to be honest I still really like the status knights they look so good and i think the black lip with polished spokes will go good with the orange.

Staggered and AWD is actually fine. Making sure the rolling diameter front and rear is equal or within a couple percent of one another is all that is necessary. In fact the same sized tires can be used front and rear if not wanting to go 265/40/22 and 295/35/22 route.
 
Yeah it would be a fair amount of work but the spokes in Hyper black or gunmetal would look pretty slick on your ride IMO.
 
after thinking and listening to you guys chrome would not be the best choice and aswell as the wieght. I do want a semi fast car and not one that will look ghetto. i want to go for the imported sport look:tup: and im sure you guys know what im talking about. i still think im leaning toward the status knight wheels they are alot lighter wieght and ever since they came out I have loved the look. ill post a link for you to know what im talking about. hopefully you guys will agree this one looks better. will make my decision alot easier,lol

You would have to get them media blasted I believe. At that point with repainting or powdercoating it's probably a good bet to just keep looking (figure on the low end another 100 per wheel for paint or powdercoat and that probably will not include prep, unless you have a hookup).

I like the wheels. The finish may or may not go well with your FX. It really shouldn't matter what we think, it's your ride!

Exactly!
