Tough call on which 17" wheel looks better 56K beware

I am switching back to stock and in the process I took pics for anybody who's interested in getting the SSR Comps. light weight wheels. I couldn't tell which looks better I truly like them both



235/45 ZR17 Michelin Pilot Sport A/S in left and stock Michelins 215/50 VR17 in right as you can see very little difference in width




but the Michelin Pilot 235/45 is considerably taller than stock although it is a 45 series tire.




back to stock form it looks kinda plain



The SSR are BUSY wheels they look more interesting although the stocks look much bigger

Forgot to put these pics. Take a look at the difference in offset of a 48 for the SSR to a 55 stock wheel

Look at the comparison picture of the stock first and the SSR Comps below. The SSR provide a wider more aggresive stance
stock

SSR

Well Lou, you're almost 100% back to stock. All except the springs.
