theyre nice and cheap wheels .. the only issue is how rare they are if u mess one up.
u shoulda went with the 18x9.5 that mb sells of those.. and some nice tires with a dumped drop
would look hott

Thanks for the opinion but I came from a different mindset.
I just spent money on a complete turbo upgrade, HKS 272 Cams, exhaust, Exedy clutch, Competition Flywheel, 1000cc injectors, manual and electrical boost controllers, paid for a tune and dyno time and I love to race on the street. So knowing the cost of 18 inch rubber vs 17 in rubber my decision was 17's. They are a lot cheaper to replace and are a bit better to race light to light with. The 18x9.5 will NOT fit the stock setup. And having just spent all the money on the above I was tapped out for coilovers at the moment and I wanted the wheels badly. So again I went with 17x9 wheels. I am planning a 2in drop in the future & I think the 17's will look killer at that time.
