Those are nice. but i would go with 18s because of the lip 18s look more like 17s. So if you get 17s it would look like 16s...

Volks are always a good choice. Have fun waiting for them though. I'm going on 2 months so far.

It depends what car you put it on. Smaller cars- like Civics and Integras, match it well.

So for our CL's, you guys would recommend either 18's or 19's?

I would get a rim that looks good in 17s for the CL. Nothing larger. But thats just me. I care somewhat about the performance of my car...No need to make a slow car any slower.

Wheel diameter makes a difference too...its not just the weight.

Make sure you look at them in 18s and make sure you like them. 19s > 18s for those rims.

Rotational mass! Volks are way lighter than most aftermarket 18" wheel out there. That was my point.
