Now when the Kia Optima made its first appearance, I don't think many people could really refute its styling. Hell, it was easily one of the top cars at last year's New York Auto Show. Sure you can always say "It's just a Kia," but we're willing to wager you will not find a better looking car in the low $20,000 price mark.
Although it hails from Korea, the all-new Optima has plenty of European design cues that presents an interesting mix. It definitely presents itself with some pizazz and looks more expensive than your run-of-the-mill Honda Accord, Toyota Camry and all-new Volkswagen Passat, which many critics find devoid of character.
When you look at this image with the rims, keep in mind we're not saying THESE particular rims fit the car; however, use your imagination a little bit. Think how the Optima would look with a thick, five-spoke 19-inch wheel OR another set of aftermarket wheels.
