Do these rims look alright?

They're 17" Prodrive P7's which I originally had on My Subaru 2.5RS.The overall diameter is a bit smaller than the stock 17 inchers so there's a bit more gap. The offset is different as well (52 vs. 45), so I don't know if that will mess anything up. I took it for a spirited test drive and everything seemed fine.

OK, being Mr. Honsety of the board, I gotta say first, wheels are usually always a plus....Second, I feel that style of wheel is kinda played out. JUST MY OPINION! What matters is if you like them!

They look fine, and would look better if you got your Vibe dropped.

They do look sort of small and tucked...I had the same problem w/ my new wheels....you can see the pics...Before and after....I did two things...I sold the tires and put the right sized 225-45-17 tires on and I also put Eibach Prokits on.-PhilBefore:

If I was to buy some new wheels I'm sure I'd get a different style, but since I had these taking up space in the garage I figured I'd go ahead and use 'em. I'll probably end up putting snow tires on the stock rims and swap them out every winter. A drop may be in the future, as soon as I talk my wife into doing it (it is her car afterall).
