A little shinny for my taste. I have there HOSS wheels. I gave them one hell of a beating this weekend. A little model paint and I was good to go.

I glanced at this thread title and thought to myself...."Kentucky Fried Chicken makes wheels?" Then I realized it wasn't kFc.

I think they look pretty good, they'd look a lot better if the center cap was black though.

with those i would not go over a 18" rim. on 33's i'd go prob about 17. if you were doin' 35's i'd say 17, but an 18 could be pulled off i guess..

I think the 20s would be a little big on 33s but the 18s should look good as long as you don't beat up rims much(crawling in rocks or something)

i like the wheel. 17/18 would be best for 33's for both look and function. 20's are too big for a 33 in my opinion.

Well, you asked for opinions... Mine is that I'm not a fan of them at any size. Too much bling. If you like them I'd say 18" better than 20".

Serious thoughts to if you are going to wheel with them or not. May never look that good again if you do.
