another wheel im looking at...


http://www.vividracing.com/catalog/p...ducts_id/10557

Rays Gram lights 57C..


the only bad thing about this one, is that its a 17'' rim.

It fits perfectly.. but thats my only concern...

suggestions!

Nex-O M-20 look sweet im guess the reason there so low in price is due to the fact there 17in <--- anyone no parking in nyc if someone would care to steal 17in rims or is it a 19in stealing market :P also what tires go well with those 17's

dude you have awesome taste....the color your paintin your car and the rims you're lookin at...

if you get the gram lights or rotas you'll be real happy....nothin wrong with a 17 inch wheel, especially in a rays/volk wheel....lighter and it'll ride better with the slightly larger sidewall, thats why i got mine

haha, although my buddy put 19 x 9.5s on his 350 and they were only 19lbs....but he paid out the ass for them so

Now im torn...

17'' 57C

17'' 57Pro

18'' Fno1rc



what to do. I may be able to get an 18'' on the gram light wheels instead of the 17'', but I'd probably have to buy the tires myself...

suggestions once more!

Alex dont let all these people scare you.
You should just pick your rims and get em.
Just keep in mind that 18 is the way to go. I myself like 19s but i feel you.
The CL is a sleek, elegant sexy car. Do not get some bulky rims made for a WRX or Evo. Dont get something too sporty but not too pimp. Make sure you go with a dark color to contrast with the hood. With those im mind ull be good.

17x8 w/a 35mm offset or 17x7 with a 40mm offset?

Which will fit perfectly? AKA not stick out like a go-kart civic or tuck in way too deep?

what say you guys?
