I like these the best, then probably the ones above it as a 2nd choice.

I like the Volks but am not a big fan of the gold/bronze color personally..... I like the OZ like these and the other offshoots


And these

TSW's are cool and all but if you are going to shell out the money for new rims go that extra bit more and purchase the RAYS!

^ Agreed. 17's are the perfect compromise of style and performance, IMO.

naw 16" are the best size and are perfect for track use. if you run 17" rims you have to get 40 profile tires. which is too much of a harsh ride on the roads, well that also depends the sidewall stiffness. But not too many places make nice looking 16" rims, they all come in 17"

as long as you realize that the te37s are $700 each.
17x8 with a 235/40/17 is preem

don't do a 7" width, looks like poo
TSW's are a bitch to clean
Volk TE37........where will you find 5x100 10+ offset wink.gif for cheap?? laugh.gif

Get Takata Green TE37s or the Time Attack TE37s......again if you can find 5x100 10-25+ offset laugh.gif


Anyone tried clicking the "close" button on the bottom of the Volk rim pic besides me?? rolleyes.gif

I don't normally drive fast, but when I do its on a curvy section of this island
the time attacks were one of the top picks for me...what about these?
