Yep I third that. Don't do it. You'll ruin your FTO if you do that.

Khaos rims are the WORST rim in the existence of mankind.

Yep i agree with RnBboi, those rims should be only use with Good O'l U.S of A's tanks.

Out of the lot, my favourites were the verde scorpions with the gold trim. I like the look of mags that you can remove body parts in (looks a bit like blades, hence the kaos ones. i admit they will prolly look crap on an fto so i will avoid them)

My concern with verde ones is similar to khunjeng's. do you think they will be a little "busy" on an fto? I love the look of bling but i dont want them to be so bling that they will look tacky.

It's officially no Chrome Zone here!!

Post by **dstocks** » Mon Mar 13, 2006 12:30 pm

I agree. Most chrome looks like cheap $5 hubcaps from K Mart. If it has any chance of working its got to be understated, not in your face.
