Default To bling, or not to bling...

So I need some help with wheel selection. I like straight forward classy looking wheels, with a nice lip, but I'm having trouble finding any I like in chrome. Most that I see are swoopy with lots of curves and that's not really my thing. I kinda dig the Niche F-16's but I'm not too sure how those would look on my xb. For a non-chrome selection I'm liking the Axis Maglites.

I'd prefer an 18, any suggestions guys? This is ____in me off not being able to find a good chrome. Thanks

First of all, do you have the [b]"bB" emblem on you XB? If so, the "bB" stand for [b]BLING-BLING. The decision is yours.......What moves you!

yup it's all about the bling Bling. Do what you wanna do Na'im, it's your ride. Personally I think those are pretty sick but damn those things must be heavy.

Helo makes some nice chromies for us too. Check out my profile, Helo Pinch. Wheels and tires only cost me $1200 shipped. I dig the bling look, not much of the tunre wheel kinda guy. (but that's just me, as xB's do look good with tuners on them.

I decided to go with the helo teases, I like the look, and think they'll compliment the car very well.

Helo does make some nice looking rims. We have installed a set of the Nerves and the Specs, both looked very nice on the Box.
