Something different, I say go for it.
It could look great, but it could also look terrible.

the walls tend to come off with high pressure hose and if you put tyre shine on them they start to peel off. generaly get them to hide your un-roadworthy wheel size:p
but other then that go for it |

I'm going to be the person who is against.
IMO they look good on 20's or bigger and old cars.

id have to agree with mark and wayne. 20'' bigger looks good with the white rubber band tryes but would look good on an e-series car depending on what colour the car is.

I had a white wall done but it looked a bit too poxy on the 16"s for my liking. It was pretty thick and cracked a lot. Flipped it round.
