What do you guys think looks better? With the pointed end going toward the way the wheels are turning, or with the round end?

Would flipping it around to having the pointed end sticking out do anything bad? I wouldn't think so, but it doesn't hurt to ask.

What do you guys think?
 












Yea you can?.. Swap sides?.. It'll be pointing the other way, look at the pictures.
 






They point one way on side and the other way on the other side. But for instance you can't make the pointed end go forward on the left side.
 






Oh damn, I just caught what you're saying... now this is going to bug me that they're not the same on both sides.... great..
 






Yeah.. I just realized it... and now it's going to bug me... -_-''
 












Actually, they are the same on both sides.... they are, in fact, the same wheel, but no switching sides won't change the direction of the swirl. They're not directional rims.

Makes no difference to me... I like the round holes in the Alcoa aluminum rims on the Rangers, myself.... Wish they made something similar for the Ex's
 






I agree, I like the look of the Alcoa rims.

A set of Bajas from American Racing will fix that.

You know what really bugs me..how the emergency flasher button on the steering column is off centered
 






Is it? Omg, don't tell me that!!
