I finally got around to picking up a set of wheels for the S80. I couldn’t stand the stockers, so I went with 18” Enkei J-10’s.

I think they go well with the car. Opinions?
 
yeah the old wheels made it look like an old man car, that makes it look a little more aggressive, I like them, and I bet they look even better in person where you can see more detail.
 
Unfortunately lowering doesn’t fair well on these cars. They rub like crazy. It’s pushing it squeezing the 18’s in there. It was getting pretty dark by the time I got the camera out. It’s hard to tell, but the wheels fill in the wheel wells nicely.

You're right, the pictures don't do it any justice, in person they look so much better. If I had better lighting it would have helped, but it's hard to get a good pic of black wheels.
