ok thanks, i thought so. Well on my black CSVT I'm thinking of going with black or gunmetal rims. My top two mavorites are the Enkei MMR2 and the Konig Theory, I believe thats their correct model. Any input would be nice, whatever might look best. I liked the Enkei RS5's two of you had at that last meet, but I think a darker rim would be unique, which I like.

if you plan to run 18's you'll have to knock on the fender a bit though.

Well as much driving as I do and going to school in Flint where the roads are horrible, I think I'll probably get 17s with a 45 tire. I took some photos of the RS5's on the cars and they look equally good...that is 17s and 18s.

What's cheap?
Tirerack sells focus svt rims for 125 bucks a piece. Either the regular svt, or the euro package rims. 125 a piece is cheap if you ask me. Thats less than most tires.

I know this is an older thread but I figured I'd tell everyone what I decided on doing with the wheels and tires. I just bought a set of 17 inch konig theorys in the dark gunmetal color for my black svt. I have to wait till this next weekend to get them as they are being sent from california. Can't wait! also I bought a set of snow tires to put on my current 16s for winter use. Just an fyi there are killer deals on snow tires right now! i bought a set that runs over 250 a tire for $72 each how awesome is that!? All this at discount tire.

Yeah, I've found that Discount truly is the best place to go for in person tire/wheel purchases. I was trying to find some tires and they were asking quite a bit, i told them i could find them online cheaper and they told me that they would match ANY price, as long as it was legitimate.

yeah I considered ordering online, and forgot all about the fact that I could maybe save a couple 100 bucks but the deal i got on snow tires made my day. all in all I can't wait to see my car with the new rims, i wish there was another get together in the novi area. I would like to see some more of the guy's mods interior ect. Anyway i spent the whole day today fixing my headlamps, i repainted the top portion (eyelid) so it looks gorgious again. - that was off topic but hey give me shot back on what u think of a meet maybe back at the fountain walk or something. or at least something in the area that is going on that i dont know about.
