If I had seen these before I bought my wheels a month ago, I would've definitely bought them.
That 5" lip is awesome!

You spent $3,000 on wheels and tires so you could save money at the pump?

That's like a Chic buying a $500 dress because it's on sale

hey pinoyhero.. talk to www.garagefive.net
they are in canada i believe.

also...
i only spent about 2k and change.. on the wheels...
i got the tires from my friend who had them lying around...
so i didnt really spend anything...
once i go through these tires i will get proper sized ones.

interesting..
.i just did a tire size calculator..
and
stock 225/50r17 and 235/50r17
with my current setup of 245/45r18 and 255/45r18
the front is smaller by .2 overall diameter
and the rear is smaller by .1 overall diameter.
i guess i will be sticking w/ this setup.

Do you know if the spokes are actually forged, or just the lip? I know on most of the volks it's just the lip that's forged...

One thing I don't care for is a deep lip one the front wheels. I only like it on the back. Other than that, they look pretty clean. I think they would look better though in 22" on a 300M

i thought they looked better off the car. imo they look like cheap wheels that u can get from wal mart. maybe its the color, or the style im not sure. but good choice on selling them and wanting to buy 19's. i just hope they r not the same wheels in 19's. sorry,but thats my honest opinion.

ure right. now that i think about it. bigger wheel, less tire, the car lowered. i think it would look insane. i think it looks the way it does because the tire is fat and the wheel needs to be bigger.
