Wheels

So I'm looking at getting these wheels in 17x7. I'm not a big fan of the stock wheels, so I think these would be a good replacement my SSM. What you think? And they only weigh like 18lbs

I think those would look nice on an MS3 or GTI or something. not a TL. IMO replacing the stock wheels with something the same size is a waste of money. even if they are only 18 lbs. i would look for 18s or 19s.

dont cheap out so you dont have to buy tires.. buy bigger wheels and tires, sit the car nicely on them, and call it a day.

I have a set of 19's. But I just didn't want to ride on the 19s all the time. These would just be my spare set for when I travel. I'm just not a big fan of stock wheels. It was just a thought.

ok so I been searching and I've only found one thread about these wheels in 19's. The smallest they have is 19x9.5 w/ 35mm offset, I know thats pushing the limit but I think it'll look good. Tell me what ya'll think
