    Ok - how about these rims?

    Originally I was looking for something more like the Racing Hart C2's or ADR M-Classics (bmw'ish mesh style) - but came across these for a pretty good price -what do you guys think?

    They kind of remind me of the Velox rims.

    Yah - the C2's were my first choice - but for the price of these, I think it's a good deal. jacuzzi, what $ did you get your C2's for?

    i got quoted on some 17 inch HP hurricanes and C2's from our own wheelsboutique. these packages include tire upgrade shipping and wheel lugs

    699 for the HP hurricane
    and 1030 for the RH c2

    That is a damn good price. What tire upgrade is included and what size tire - 215/40-17? I'm trying to get 225/40-17.

    Incidentally, here's a pic of the tires I originally posted mounted on a car (nevermind what make ).

    if your gettting 17's, get 215/45zr17 or 225/45zr17. 40 series is not tall enough to stay within 1% OE rolling diameter spec and not only will your tire / wheel package look too small, but your speedo will also be fast.

    quick rule of thumb is go w/ 225 wide and:

    16" = 50 series
    17" = 45 series
    18" = 40 series
    19" = 35 series

    Yeah, on the tire size, I meant 45 series, not 40 - my bad, thanks for the correction.

    Here's a quick rendition of what the ADR's might look like on my car. Not my actual car here, plucked from the net - but same color, minus my spoiler and interior. This would be pre-drop, of course. Nevermind the blue tint to the wheels, too.

    Looks okay, just make sure you get 225/45 tires, as Reelax suggested.
