They're MSR American Eagle rims, but even though the majority seemed to like the first, I had to go with the second set due to a much better price. Since I'm pretty tight on funds right now and need new rims because I bent the crap out of my stock ones by hitting a curb, you guys can go ahead and flame me for that one, I went with the cheaper ones. But hey, they look similar and I imagine they'll both look about the same. Thanks for all the imput everyone, it was much appreciated.

The rims arrived this morning, and I just got done putting them on when I got off work about an hour ago. They look more incredible than I ever even imagine, I'll post pictures tomorrow as soon as I get a chance to snap some.
looks good!

Make sure that your camera is on the right settings when you take pics in the bright daylight, otherwise they looked all washed out.
Oh, and next time, take the same shot but turn the tires the other way. It just looks better that way (more wheel, less tire).

The 17s I've been contemplating over:
Ultra clean in my opinion.

Oh yeah...did I mention $413 shipped to my door? Without tires, but that's what www.Jegs.com is for.

Those are ultra sexy ... I have to agree with you. I dunno what there's to contemplate really, but I guess it IS a good idea to look around a bunch before actually goin out and spending your money. I can't believe they're that cheap though, what size are they? They almost look like 18s but the price tells me they're more than likely 17s, am I right or no?
