Im thinking about getting some 16" rims(the same size that are on there now so I can keep my new tires) and I am wondering your personal opinion on which rims would look best on my car.

Best advice i can give is , what do you think whould look best on your ride? you are gonna be the only one driving it. what happens if months later down the road you think to yourself "dang , i shoulda got those other rims i liked? basic phy 101 you will like the rims you pick out a lot better. so say 8 years of human physcology @ Boca Raton Fla.

Got some yesterday night, put them on today. They came with Acura center caps so I took those off and ordered new ones. I cant tell if they are Kyowa KR206 or Volk CE28 because it looks like someone sanded down all the etching and markings then painted them. The lips are pretty beat and needs new tires(the TREAD itself it dry rotted). So I plan on sanding and painting the rim after I get new tires. But its the look I wanted! I worked my ass to find another Sebring with rims so I had some background when choosing rims. I got skunked with that idea. I think I have the only Sebring with rims in the city...county for that matter, maybe even neighboring counties..who knows. I liked the car before but LOVE it soo much more now. It has the "classy" look of a Cadillac where it can be doing 2 over the speed limit cruising with style and still break peoples necks from looking but also has the aggressive/sporty personality as seen in the last two pictures. It almost reminds me of a person at the starting line of a marathon leaning forward getting ready to haul ass!

-Looks pretty sweet. The black spokes offset all of the silver from the car and the machined lip of the rim. Congrats...

Thanks, They came with Acura center caps but I ordered some new ones. Is there any way to fix a machined lip? I was thinking wet sanding with 220, 800, and 1200 then buffing with was and a power ball, and clear coat over top of that.

Now you'll want to paint your calipers and maybe the rusty part of your rotors since the new rims expose them more.

You could go with black or silver. There are numerous options for high temperature paint on the market now.
